| description.long | A type analysis tool for Python that enables code to transition from pure dynamic typing to statically-typed code through annotations, with error detection at check time. Code runs with negligible performance impact and developers can incrementally adopt static types in existing projects. | Stylelint is an open-source CSS linter with over 100 built-in rules that helps developers catch errors, enforce conventions, and automatically fix issues. It supports plugins for custom rules and can parse CSS-like languages such as SCSS and Sass. |
