Versions:
oxlint 1.59.0, published by VoidZero Inc. & Contributors, is a command-line linting utility purpose-built for JavaScript and TypeScript codebases where build speed is critical. Falling squarely into the Developer Tools / Code Quality category, the tool scans source files for erroneous, redundant, or stylistically inconsistent patterns up to two orders of magnitude faster than the widely used ESLint benchmark, a performance gain achieved through a Rust-based engine that parallelizes work and avoids redundant AST passes. Unlike traditional linters that often demand extensive rule configuration, oxlint ships with a curated, production-ready ruleset that activates automatically, so projects can benefit from immediate static analysis without scaffolding .eslintrc or tsconfig files; at the same time, teams that need custom policies can layer configuration files incrementally. Typical use cases include rapid pre-commit checks in large monorepos, real-time feedback inside continuous-integration pipelines, and gradual codebase modernization where legacy JavaScript is being upgraded to TypeScript. Because the linter is distributed as a self-contained native binary, it installs quickly on Windows development machines and integrates transparently with editors such as VS Code through language-server hooks, producing diagnostics that feed directly into the IDE Problems panel. Continuous deployment statistics show that the project has iterated through 33 public versions, refining rule coverage and parser alignment with the evolving ECMAScript specification while sustaining backward compatibility. oxlint is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources (e.g. winget), always delivering the latest version, and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
