TSLint is a static analysis tool for TypeScript code that helps enforce consistent coding styles and catch potential errors early in the development process. It provides a wide range of configurable rules to ensure code quality and maintainability, such as enforcing indentation, variable naming conventions, and detecting unused variables.
Compared to alternatives like ESLint, TSLint is specifically designed for TypeScript and offers TypeScript-specific rules and type checking. However, TSLint has been deprecated in favor of ESLint, which now supports TypeScript through plugins. It is recommended to migrate from TSLint to ESLint for ongoing support and compatibility with the latest tools and standards.
