Fast, extensible, configurable, and beautiful linter for Go

Read Original

This article introduces Revive, a linter for the Go programming language. It explains how Revive builds upon the existing golint tool by adding features like configuration files, the ability to enable/disable rules, custom formatters, and improved performance through parallel execution. The author discusses the limitations of golint and how Revive addresses them while maintaining the opinionated culture of the Go ecosystem.
