Can someone who has tried this share their experience?

It sounds really awesome but it's very hard to tell if it's going to be more annoying or more useful. Maybe it would be useful to have some example linting errors on the homepage.

Either way, I really love the idea!




Hmm, I tried it out. Doesn't seem too useful yet and there is some polishing to be done so hopefully this continues to go through further development!

One needed improvement: display the offending line on errors. Then you don't have to toggle between file and console to contextualize the errors.


I ran some of my recent emails through it. It picked up my overuse of exclamation marks and my use of "all of the time" instead of "all the time." It definitely doesn't seem to sensitive - I would lint all of my emails with it if it were easy to do so.
