+The `recommended` preset will include rules governing an ES2015+ environment, and includes rules from the [`eslint-plugin-jsdoc`](https://github.com/gajus/eslint-plugin-jsdoc), [`eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y`](https://github.com/evcohen/eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y), [`eslint-plugin-react`](https://github.com/yannickcr/eslint-plugin-react), and other similar plugins.
 
-There is also `recommended-with-formatting` ruleset for projects that want to opt out from [Prettier](https://prettier.io). It has the native ESLint code formatting rules enabled instead.
+This preset offers an optional integration with the [`eslint-plugin-prettier`](https://github.com/prettier/eslint-plugin-prettier) package that runs [Prettier](https://prettier.io) code formatter and reports differences as individual ESLint issues. You can activate it by installing the [`prettier`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/prettier) package separately with:
+
+```bash
+npm install prettier --save-dev
+```
+
+Finally, this ruleset also includes an optional integration with the [`@typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin`](https://github.com/typescript-eslint/typescript-eslint) package that enables ESLint to support [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org) language. You can activate it by installing the [`typescript`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/typescript) package separately with:
+
+```bash
+npm install typescript --save-dev
+```
+
+There is also `recommended-with-formatting` ruleset for projects that want to ensure that [Prettier](https://prettier.io) and [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org) integration is never activated. This preset has the native ESLint code formatting rules enabled instead.
