Разработка нового статического анализатора: PVS-Studio JavaScript
Вот уже 18 лет статический анализатор кода PVS-Studio находится на рынке. За это время он обзавёлся поддержкой языков C, C++, C# и Java. Разумеется, останавливаться на этих языках мы не планируем, и в этой статье расскажем про разработку нового JavaScript/TypeScript анализатора, который выйдет уже совсем скоро.

Before I jump into today's #Hackster round-up, it was the second Tuesday of the month yesterday - which means a new El Correo Libre, my monthly newsletter for the FOSSi Foundation, went up.
It's here, if you're at all interested in the happenings in the world of free and open-source silicon and the like. And it's still here even if you're not.
