JSHint is a static code analysis tool used in software development for checking if JavaScript source code complies with coding rules.[1] It was forked from Douglas Crockford's JSLint project, as it was felt that the original did not allow enough customization options. There is also an internet version available at its official website in which users can paste code to run the application online.[1] A command-line version of JSHint, distributed as a Node.js module, makes it possible to automate one's linting process and integrate JSHint into the website's development workflow.[2]
License
JSHint is distributed under an MIT license, except for one file still under the JSLint License which is a slightly modified version of the MIT license. The additional clause specifies that the software shall be used for Good and not Evil and makes the Software proprietary.[3]
