JSHint, A Static Code Analysis Tool for JavaScript
\ [Use it online •
Install •
JSHint is a community-driven tool that detects errors and potential problems in
JavaScript code. Since JSHint is so flexible, you can easily adjust it in
the environment you expect your code to execute. JSHint is publicly available
and will always stay this way.
Our goal
The project aims to help JavaScript developers write complex programs
without worrying about typos and language gotchas.
Any code base eventually becomes huge at some point, so simple mistakes — that
would not show themselves when written — can become show stoppers and add
extra hours of debugging. So, static code analysis tools come into play
and help developers spot such problems. JSHint scans a program written in
JavaScript and reports about commonly made mistakes and potential bugs. The
potential problem could be a syntax error, a bug due to an implicit type
conversion, a leaking variable, or something else entirely.
Only 15% of all programs linted on jshint.com pass the
JSHint checks. In all other cases, JSHint finds some red flags that could've
been bugs or potential problems.
Please note, that while static code analysis tools can spot many different kind
of mistakes, it can't detect if your program is correct, fast or has memory
leaks. You should always combine tools like JSHint with unit and functional
tests as well as with code reviews.
Reporting a bug
To report a bug simply create a
new GitHub Issue and describe
your problem or suggestion. We welcome all kinds of feedback regarding
JSHint including but not limited to:
When JSHint doesn't work as expected
When JSHint complains about valid JavaScript code that works in all browsers
When you simply want a new option or feature
Before reporting a bug, please look around to see if there are any open or closed tickets
that discuss your issue, and remember the wisdom: pull request > bug report > tweet.
