About:
Hlint is a source code suggestion tool for Haskell that analyzes code to recommend improvements and best practices. It identifies common anti-patterns, style inconsistencies, and potential performance issues. The tool helps maintain high code quality and consistency across Haskell projects.
Key Features:
  • Detects common code smells and anti-patterns
  • Enforces Haskell style guidelines and conventions
  • Provides automatic fix suggestions
  • Supports custom hints and configuration
  • Integrates with editors and CI/CD pipelines
Use Cases:
  • Code review automation and quality assurance
  • Refactoring legacy Haskell codebases
  • Enforcing team coding standards
  • Continuous integration for Haskell projects
Alternatives:
  • stylish-haskell – Focuses on code formatting rather than semantic analysis
  • ormolu – Automatic code formatter with stricter formatting rules
