HTMLHint is a static code analysis (linting) tool for HTML, configurable via a .htmlhintrc file with many built-in rules. It runs as a CLI, programmatically via Node.js, and integrates with editors, task runners, and CI pipelines.

Use cases

  • lint html files for errors
  • enforce html best practices in a project
  • check html code quality in ci
  • validate html attribute and tag usage
  • lint html from a url
  • integrate html linting into webpack or gulp
  • get real-time html linting in vs code

When to choose

  • you need a dedicated, configurable HTML linter with CLI and programmatic APIs
  • you want SARIF output for GitHub Code Scanning
  • you need editor or CI integration for HTML quality checks

When to avoid

  • you need linting for CSS or JavaScript (use Stylelint or ESLint)
  • you need full HTML validation against a spec or DTD
  • your project does not use Node.js
