Describe the Bug

No eslint plugin is installed on project init.

When installing eslint plugin, eslint config fails

It needs extra configuration to make linter work correctly

Reproduction Steps

npx create-payload-app@beta project template: blank-3.0 yarn lint expected result: ✔ No ESLint warnings or errors observed result: ⨯ ESLint must be installed: yarn add --dev eslint

Try yarn add --dev eslint observed result error memoizee@0.4.16: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=.0.12". Got "20.9.0" error Found incompatible module.

Add eslint manually in package.json in devDependencies "eslint": "^8.57.0" Then install (yarn install) Install is now successful Run linter again (yarn lint) Observed result: ⚠ The Next.js plugin was not detected in your ESLint configuration. See https://nextjs.org/docs/basicfeatures/eslint#migrating-existing-config

To correct the issue, change lint config:

• add to devDependencies: "eslint-config-next": "14.2.3"
• remove .eslintrc.cjs
• add .eslintrc.json
• fill with this content { "extends": "next/core-web-vitals" }

Run yarn lint should be working
