We noticed some buzz on twitter today about JSLint moving to GitHub. JSLint is a code quality tool for the Javascript language, there’s a more detailed explanation available here.

Popularity is determined by the size of the files for a given language and is calculated differently than the way we determine what language a given repo is written in.
