 With eslintrc, you can make ESLint ignore files by creating a separate `.eslintignore` file in the root of your project. The `.eslintignore` file uses the same glob pattern syntax as `.gitignore` files. Alternatively, you can use an `ignorePatterns` property in your eslintrc file.
 
-To ignore files with flat config, you can use the `ignores` property in a config object. The `ignores` property accepts an array of glob patterns. Note that flat config glob patterns do _not_ match dot files (e.g. `*.js` won't match `.dotfile.js`). Flat config does not support loading ignore patterns from `.eslintignore` files, so you'll need to migrate those patterns directly into flat config.

 For example, here's a `.eslintignore` example you can use with an eslintrc config:
 
 ```shell
 # .eslintignore
 temp.js
-.config/*
+config/*
 # ...other ignored files
 ```

 Here are the same files ignore patterns in flat config:
 
 ```javascript
 export default [

-        // ...other config
-        ignores: ["temp.js", ".config/*"]

+Also, with flat config, dotfiles (e.g. `.dotfile.js`) are no longer ignored by default. If you want to ignore dotfiles, add files ignore pattern `"**/.*"`.

 ### Linter Options
 
 ESlintrc files let you configure the linter itself with the `noInlineConfig` and `reportUnusedDisableDirectives` properties.
