Read the Biome migration guide
Step-by-step migration guidance for moving an existing `biome.jsonc` project onto Ultracite.
Standardize your Biome workflow with Ultracite
Ultracite keeps the fast formatter-and-linter workflow that made you choose Biome in the first place, then adds a stronger default baseline for editor setup, team consistency, and repeatable project bootstrapping.
When Biome is the right Ultracite default
This page is for teams already leaning toward Biome and trying to decide whether Ultracite meaningfully improves the day-to-day experience.
Choose Biome for a simpler team standard
Biome is the strongest default when you want formatting and linting to feel like one opinionated system instead of a chain of plugins and companion tools.
That makes it especially attractive for teams that value fast onboarding, predictable editor behavior, and fewer places for configuration drift to appear.
What Ultracite adds to the Biome workflow
Ultracite does not try to replace Biome's core value. It packages a stricter shared baseline, editor defaults, and migration ergonomics so multiple projects can converge on the same expectations.
The benefit is not a different linter. The benefit is a repeatable way to apply Biome across teams without re-deciding every rule and editor behavior from scratch.
What Biome gives up versus the ESLint ecosystem
Biome still trades away some of the plugin variety and framework-specific edge coverage that make ESLint attractive for mature or unusual stacks.
If those plugins are central to how your team works, Ultracite's ESLint route is the better fit. If you want fewer moving parts, Biome usually stays the cleaner default.
What changes in your Biome setup
The generated `biome.jsonc` stays compact because Ultracite carries the defaults. You extend the presets you need, keep any deliberate overrides, and still preserve the single-binary developer experience.

Biome stays appealing when you want one tool to format, lint, and organize imports without inheriting the plugin management overhead of the ESLint ecosystem.
Lightning fast
Written in Rust, Biome can format a large codebase in milliseconds.
All-in-one toolchain
No more juggling ESLint, Prettier, and other tools. Biome handles formatting and linting in a single pass.
287 preconfigured rules
Covers accessibility, complexity, correctness, performance, security, style, and suspicious patterns.
