eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y
Static AST checker for a11y rules on JSX elements
Static AST checker for accessibility rules on JSX elements. This plugin does a static evaluation of the JSX to spot accessibility issues in React apps. Because it only catches errors in static code, use it in combination with axe-core/react to test the accessibility of the rendered DOM. Consider these tools just as one step of a larger a11y testing process and always test your apps with assistive technology. If you installed ESLint globally (using the -g flag in npm, or the global prefix in yarn) then you must also install eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y globally. To enable your custom components to be checked as DOM elements, you can set global settings in your configuration file by mapping each custom component name to a DOM element type. Enforce all elements that require alternative text have meaningful information to relay back to the end user. -

Pylint
It's not just a linter that annoys you!
Pylint is a static code analyzer for Python 2 or 3. The latest version supports Python 3.7.2 and above. Pylint analyses your code without actually running it. It checks for errors, enforces a coding standard, looks for code smells, and can make suggestions about how the code could be refactored. Projects that you might want to use alongside pylint include flake8 (faster and simpler checks with very few false positives), mypy, pyright or pyre (typing checks), bandit (security-oriented checks), black and isort (auto-formatting), autoflake (automated removal of unused import or variable), pyupgrade (automated upgrade to newer python syntax) and pydocstringformatter (automated pep257). Pylint isn't smarter than you: it may warn you about things that you have conscientiously done or checks for some things that you don't care about. During adoption, especially in a legacy project where pylint was never enforced. -

PHP Parser
A PHP parser written in PHP
This is a PHP 5.2 to PHP 8.0 parser written in PHP. Its purpose is to simplify static code analysis and manipulation. A parser is useful for static analysis, manipulation of code and basically any other application dealing with code programmatically. A parser constructs an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) of the code and thus allows dealing with it in an abstract and robust way. As the parser is based on the tokens returned by token_get_all (which is only able to lex the PHP version it runs on), additionally a wrapper for emulating tokens from newer versions is provided. This allows to parse PHP 7.4 source code running on PHP 7.0, for example. This emulation is somewhat hacky and not perfect, but it should work well on any sane code. Support for pretty printing, which is the act of converting an AST into PHP code. Please note that "pretty printing" does not imply that the output is especially pretty. -
19
Pyright
Static type checker for Python
Pyright is a fast type checker meant for large Python source bases. It can run in a “watch” mode and performs fast incremental updates when files are modified. Pyright supports configuration files that provide granular control over settings. Different “execution environments” can be associated with subdirectories within a source base. Each environment can specify different module search paths, python language versions, and platform targets. Type inference for function return values, instance variables, class variables, and globals. Type guards that understand conditional code flow constructs like if/else statements. Type hinting generics in standard collections. Pyright ships as both a command-line tool and a VS Code extension that provides many powerful features that help improve programming efficiency. The VS Code extension supports many time-saving language features. -

Semgrep
Lightweight static analysis for many languages
Static analysis at ludicrous speed. Find bugs and enforce code standards. Find and prevent security issues in Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, nginx, and AWS configs before they go into production. Go beyond application code and protect the entire stack with a breadth of scanning capabilities. Don't leak secrets, scan every commit and ensure secrets don't make it to production. Protect the privileged CI/CD environment from malicious activity that could result in access to source code, secrets, and more. Run with registry rules or your own. Code is analyzed locally (not uploaded). Get results at ludicrous speed with diff-aware scans, review findings in MR and PR comments, and deploy Semgrep across your organization’s projects. Go beyond the registry with rules specific to your organization. Write rules to enforce your own code guardrails. -

Sloc Cloc and Code (scc)
Sloc, Cloc and Code: scc is a very fast accurate code counter
Sloc, Cloc and Code: scc is a very fast accurate code counter with complexity calculations and COCOMO estimates written in pure Go. The tool is similar to cloc, sloccount and tokei. For counting the lines of code, blank lines, comment lines, and physical lines of source code in many programming languages. The goal is to be the fastest code counter possible, but also perform COCOMO calculations like sloccount, estimate code complexity similar to cyclomatic complexity calculators, and produce unique lines of code or DRYness metrics. In short one tool to rule them all. -

eslint-plugin-flowtype
Flow type linting rules for ESLint
Flow type linting rules for ESLint. This plugin exports a recommended configuration that enforces Flow type good practices. To enable this configuration use the extends property in your .eslintrc config file. ESLint is designed to be flexible and configurable for your use case. You can turn off every rule and run only with basic syntax validation or mix and match the bundled rules and your custom rules to fit the needs of your project. There are two primary ways to configure ESLint. Use JavaScript comments to embed configuration information directly into a file. Use a JavaScript, JSON, or YAML file to specify configuration information for an entire directory and all of its subdirectories. This can be in the form of a .eslintrc.* file or an eslintConfig field in a package.json file, both of which ESLint will look for and read automatically, or you can specify a configuration file on the command line. -
23
HTMLHint
The static code analysis tool you need for your HTML
Static code analysis tool you need for your HTML. By default, htmlhint looks for a .htmlhintrc file in the current directory and all parent directories and applies its rules when parsing a file. -
24
Lebab
Turn your ES5 code into readable ES6
Turn your ES5 code into readable ES6. Lebab does the opposite of what Babel does. Lebab transpiles your ES5 code to ES6/ES7. It does exactly the opposite of what Babel does. Convert your old-fashioned code using the lebab cli tool, enabling a specific transformation. The recommended way of using Lebab is to apply one transform at a time, read what exactly the transform does and what are its limitations, apply it to your code and inspect the diff carefully. Transforms can be applied with relatively high confidence. They use pretty straightforward and strict rules for changing the code. The resulting code should be almost 100% equivalent to the original code. Transforms should be applied with caution. They either use heuristics that can't guarantee that the resulting code is equivalent of the original code, or they have significant bugs which can result in breaking your code. -
25
Roslyn
The .NET Compiler Platform
