JSHint


JSHint is a static code analysis tool used in software development for checking if JavaScript source code complies with coding rules. JSHint was created in 2011 by Anton Kovalyov as a fork of the JSLint project. Anton and others felt JSLint was getting "too opinionated", and did not allow enough customization options. The JSHint maintainers publish both an online version, and a command-line version.
The online version is accessible through the official website in which users can paste code to run the application online. The command-line version of JSHint, enables automated linting processes by integrating JSHint into a project's development workflow.
