$ Swiftlint

Before you touch the terminal, read this: what Swiftlint is for, which parts of its CLI matter first, and where the project's own documentation lives.

Quick reference

How to read the official docs

• Official project pages. The maintainers' own site is the only source that stays current. We link to it and summarise; we never rehost.
• Purpose and scope. What problem the tool solves and where its responsibilities end — taken from the project's own description.
• Interface shape. How the command is invoked, which subcommands exist, and what the essential flags do.
• Setup pointers. Where the canonical step-by-step instructions live, platform by platform, on the official pages.

Suggested first pass

• Note which configuration files or environment variables the tool reads; this is documented on the project site.
• Read the official setup notes end to end once before typing anything, so later steps make sense in context.

When you are ready, follow the project's own instructions from its official page — that is the version the maintainers test and keep correct. This note exists so you can find your bearings before you start.
