E0222: 'private' is not allowed in JavaScript

JavaScript private properties are declared using #. It is a syntax error to write private in JavaScript code:

class Downloader {
  private downloadCount = 0;

  download() {
    this.downloadImpl();
    this.downloadCount += 1;
  }

  private downloadImpl() {
    // ...
  }
}

To fix this error, rename the property with a # prefix and remove the private keyword:

class Downloader {
  #downloadCount = 0;

  download() {
    this.#downloadImpl();
    this.#downloadCount += 1;
  }

  #downloadImpl() {
    // ...
  }
}

Alternatively, make the property public by removing the private keyword:

class Downloader {
  downloadCount = 0;

  download() {
    this.downloadImpl();
    this.downloadCount += 1;
  }

  downloadImpl() {
    // ...
  }
}

Introduced in quick-lint-js version 2.6.0.
