Linters
Edit page Last modified: 10 January 2023A linter is a software tool that analyzes codebase for bugs, errors, and other mistakes that impact its quality and can cause problems. Basically, each Qodana linter associated with a specific programming language helps:
Detect anomalous code and probable bugs
Eliminate dead code
Highlight spelling problems
Improve overall code structure
Introduce coding best practices
Starting from version 2022.3, if using the qodana.recommended and qodana.starter profiles, Qodana reads .gitignore files of your project and defines the files and folders to be ignored during inspections.
