escape-case

📝 Require escape sequences to use uppercase or lowercase values.

🔧 This rule is automatically fixable by the --fix CLI option.

Enforces a consistent escaped value style by defining escape sequence values with uppercase or lowercase characters. The default style is uppercase, which promotes readability by making the escaped value more distinguishable from the identifier.
