Linters have obvious benefits but, like any tool, can be hard to use. Not all users have the time to install and update a linter, and inspect its output. Also, some linters show many false-positives and cause the code to be littered with ignore ... comments, and any suggestion by the linter is only interesting once. After a decision is made on applying the suggestion, the suggestion should not come back.
So, I figured that it might be useful to periodically generate the lint results for many repositories and show the results on a website.
This website shows linting results for
11 patterns on
166 repositories (about 1,346,217 lines of code).
If the linter shows useful rewrites, then consider making a pull request. For many changes, use Comby. All the required information to apply Comby available on this website and in Comby's documentation. To automate pull request creation, see Sourcegraph Campaigns.
