I am facing the error while using the command npm run start:

Error: ESLint configuration in --config is invalid:- Unexpected top-level property "compilerOptions".

I cannot figure out the cause of the error. I tried adding root:true and many other solutions that i stumbled upon.

My package.json File :

  "version": "1.0.0",

    "build": "tsc",

    "eslint-config-prettier": "^8.3.0",
    "eslint-plugin-prettier": "^4.0.0",
    "typescript": "^4.5.4"
  }
}

My eslintric.js file :

module.exports = {
  root: true,
  parser: "@typescript-eslint/parser",
  parserOptions: {
    tsconfigRootDir: __dirname,
    project: ["./tsconfig.json"],
  },
  plugins: ["@typescript-eslint"],
  env: {
    node: true,
    jest: true,
  },
  ignorePatterns: ['.eslintrc.js'],
  extends: [
    "eslint:recommended",
    "plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended",
    "plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended-requiring-type-checking",
    "prettier",
  ],
};

My tsconfig.json File :

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "module": "commonjs",
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "target": "es6",
    "noImplicitAny": true,
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "sourceMap": true,
    "outDir": "dist",
    "baseUrl": ".",
    "paths": {
      "*": ["node_modules/*"]
    }
  },
  "include": ["Web/*"]
}

When I run the npm run start without the prebuild in the script my application works.
