No other topic in software development probably has so much controversy as linting. With a wrong workflow linting can be really a pain and will slow you and your team down. With a proper setup, though, it can save you hours of manual work reformatting the code and reducing the code-review overhead. This talk is a quick introduction into how πŸš«πŸ’© lint-staged β€” a node.js library I created and maintain β€” can improve developer experience in historically pita field β€” linting. Coupled with tools that analyze and improve the code like ESLint, Stylelint, Prettier and Jest, you'll witness how much difference can a small tool like this make.
