# Disallow template literal placeholder syntax in regular strings (no-template-curly-in-string) ECMAScript 6 allows programmers to create strings containing variable or expressions using template literals, instead of string concatenation, by writing expressions like `${variable}` between two backtick quotes (\`). It can be easy to use the wrong quotes when wanting to use template literals, by writing `"${variable}"`, and end up with the literal value `"${variable}"` instead of a string containing the value of the injected expressions. ## Rule Details This rule aims to warn when a regular string contains what looks like a template literal placeholder. It will warn when it finds a string containing the template literal placeholder (`${something}`) that uses either `"` or `'` for the quotes. ## Examples Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule: ```js /*eslint no-template-curly-in-string: "error"*/ "Hello ${name}!"; 'Hello ${name}!'; "Time: ${12 * 60 * 60 * 1000}"; ``` Examples of **correct** code for this rule: ```js /*eslint no-template-curly-in-string: "error"*/ `Hello ${name}!`; `Time: ${12 * 60 * 60 * 1000}`; templateFunction`Hello ${name}`; ``` ## When Not To Use It This rule should not be used in ES3/5 environments.
