It is easy to think that some patterns are always better and want to enforce them, where in reality some edge cases exist where they aren't wanted. Also, people don't usually like it when seemingly arbitrary rules are imposed on them, especially if it relates to code style, so be sure to talk with them and explain the rationale. -## Project aim and status - -At the moment, this is a toy project where I experiment to try the best way to write linter rules for Elm. It's potential strength and aim, compared to [elm-analyse](https://github.com/stil4m/elm-analyse), which is the solution you'd want to use if you were looking for an Elm linter, is to be able to write your own rules. - -I'd love to be able to use it myself on Elm projects and maybe to see it adopted by the community, but I would prefer that the efforts from this project be merged with the ones of [elm-analyse](https://github.com/stil4m/elm-analyse), so - -There is not yet a CLI to run `elm-lint` on your project.

Do remember that `elm-lint` is supposed to be run after the Elm compiler has validated the code, and is thus very unhelpful if you have parsing errors. - ## Rules These are the rules that are built-in and available for you to choose from.
