What is Lint?

Lint, in the context of software development, refers to tools that analyze source code to flag programming errors, bugs, stylistic errors, and suspicious constructs. They help enforce coding standards and improve code quality by identifying potential issues before runtime. Linter tools are commonly used during software development to automate code review and ensure code adheres to defined standards.
