JSlint on TypeScript code - can it still teach me to write better code?

Question

Can using JSlint on TypeScript generated code still teach me to write better code? If yes en can you please provide one or two examples?

Thanks

Answer 1

Nope. Since the generated javascript is consistent between bad typescript / good typescript (e.g. missing semicolons).

For typescript there is a (recommended) ts-lint : https://www.npmjs.org/package/tslint Also has a grunt plugin : https://www.npmjs.org/package/grunt-tslint
