Many JavaScript implementations do not warn against questionable
|
|
coding practices. Yes, that's nice for the site that "works best with
|
|
Internet Explorer" (designed with templates, scripted with snippets
|
|
copied from forums). But it's a nightmare when you actually want to
|
|
write quality, maintainable code.
|
|
|
|
That's where JavaScript Lint comes in. With JavaScript Lint, you can
|
|
check all your JavaScript source code for common mistakes without
|
|
actually running the script or opening the web page.
|
|
|
|
JavaScript Lint holds an advantage over competing lints because it is
|
|
based on the JavaScript engine for the Firefox browser. This provides
|
|
a robust framework that can not only check JavaScript syntax but also
|
|
examine the coding techniques used in the script and warn against
|
|
questionable practices.
