Linter is a base linter provider package for the Atom editor that offers a top-level API for language-specific linter plugins to report errors and messages. It works together with linter-ui-default to visualize diagnostics in the editor.

Use cases

  • show lint errors inline in Atom
  • build a custom linter plugin for Atom
  • unify diagnostics from multiple language linters
  • visualize compiler warnings in the editor
  • set up linting for my language in Atom

When to choose

  • you use the Atom editor and need a base framework for linting packages
  • you are developing a language-specific linter plugin for Atom

When to avoid

  • you use VS Code, Neovim, or another editor (Atom was sunset in 2022)
  • you need a standalone CLI linter rather than an editor plugin
