paperclip-lint

0.0.8 verified Fri May 01 auth: no javascript

A command-line utility and JavaScript library for linting Paperclip templates to ensure cross-browser compatibility. Version 0.0.8 is the latest stable release, though the package appears to have no recent updates. It provides both CLI (`pclint`) and programmatic usage via `require('paperclip-lint')`. Key differentiators: specifically designed for Paperclip templates, which are used with the Paperclip frontend framework. It outputs warnings and errors to help developers avoid browser-specific issues.
