Made an ESLint plugin for catching duplicate API routes

I've run into this issue more times than I'd like to admit, spending hours debugging why routes aren't working, only to discover I have:

- GET /users/:id (file A)
- GET /users/:userId (file B)

They're the same route, just with different param names. Which one actually runs? Depends on which file loads first.

Standard ESLint doesn't catch this, so I built a plugin that does.

It scans your entire codebase, understands router prefixes (app.use('/api', router)), and normalizes param names so: id and: userId are flagged as conflicts.

Works with Express, Fastify, and NestJS.

Just published it would love feedback from anyone working on larger APIs where this slips through code review.

npm install --save-dev eslint-plugin-route-guard

Hope this saves someone else the debugging headache.

@aryanlabde Backend first for sure. Why do you prefer it?

[Uzair @uzair_dev_]

Hey devs, which will you build first?

- Frontend
- Backend

[Uzair @uzair_dev_]

@andrebuilds Haha true, gotta get that visual win before backend reality kicks in

Be honest, developers:

When you see a new framework, do you:

- Immediately try to build something with it
- Scroll past and stick to what you know
- Overthink and never use it

[Uzair @uzair_dev_]

@Sourabhsinr Good idea....

@rxhit05 This list is brutal but 100% accurate Which one hits hardest for you?

[Uzair @uzair_dev_]

@rxhit05 Scroll past = peace of mind

[Uzair @uzair_dev_]

@Sourabhsinr Smart approach! Building > framework hopping
