What is YAML Lint?

A YAML linter that combines js-yaml syntax validation with style checks developers actually hit: tabs in indentation, trailing whitespace, and duplicate keys.

How it works

The document is parsed with js-yaml (which rejects duplicate keys), then each line is scanned for tab indentation and trailing whitespace.
