Flint
[Experimental] A fast, friendly linter. ❤️🔥
Flint is an experimental new linter. It's a proof-of-concept to explore the concepts in the following blog posts:
- Hybrid Linters: The Best of Both Worlds
- If I Wrote a Linter, Part 1: Architecture
- If I Wrote a Linter, Part 2: Developer Experience
- If I Wrote a Linter, Part 3: Ecosystem
- If I Wrote a Linter, Part 4: Summary
This project might go nowhere. It might show some of those ideas to be wrong. It might become a real linter. Only time will tell.
In the meantime, come talk about it on the Flint Discord.
Usage
Coming soon.
