eslint/no-array-constructor Pedantic
What it does
Disallows creating arrays with the Array constructor.
Why is this bad?
Use of the Array constructor to construct a new array is generally discouraged in favor of array literal notation because of the single-argument pitfall and because the Array global may be redefined. The exception is when the Array constructor is used to intentionally create sparse arrays of a specified size by giving the constructor a single numeric argument.
