Why You Should Lint Your JavaScript

[xjamundx]

1. Linting is way more important than you think it is.
2. There are great tools for linting node apps these days.
3. ESLint has a bunch of node specific rules that help you with things like error handling and the callback pattern.
4. You should also write custom rules and put them on NPM.
5. Your code will have less bugs and your team will fight less!
6. $$$

I've never given this talk before, but I've given other talks about linting before and would be happy to talk about this or static analysis in general. I think this is an under-discussed topic in the node community, so I'd love to be part of the program!
