jsx-quotes

JSX attribute values can contain string literals, which are delimited with single or double quotes.

<a b='c' />;
<a b="c" />;

Unlike string literals in JavaScript, string literals within JSX attributes can’t contain escaped quotes. If you want to have e.g. a double quote within a JSX attribute value, you have to use single quotes as string delimiter.

<a b="'" />;
<a b='"' />;

• "prefer-double" (default) enforces the use of double quotes for all JSX attribute values that don't contain a double quote.
