indeed, could be tricky to check for any side effects. could we start with a no-this-assign-in-render
or only-local-assign-in-render
or something?

Yeah, I was thinking along the same lines. Perhaps, also, adding a check for conditional assignments inside the render? I'm unsure what all we would want to consider warnings in a first round pass
given the nature of the problem we might want to take a narrow approach:
local assignments in render are fine
any other assignments, be they to this
, window
, or higher-scoped variables, are forbidden.
docs link to reasoning, users can turn the rule off if they want
later iterations might add acceptable cases or ignore regexp if there's demand
Potential Rule Name:
no-render-side-effects
Disallows the use of "side-effects" inside the
render
method.@bennypowers shows a simple case in this tweet: https://twitter.com/PowersBenny/status/1387330749217611776
This could a bit trickier of a rule to implement but would be a good rule to have.
