8. ESLint
It is the linting utility for JavaScript. It checks your code for common errors and lets you know in the editor itself. It’s like a virtual peer who is validating your code while you are writing it.

occurrence in Visual Studio Code. The project manager makes managing multiple projects in VS Code a breeze.
