State of linting in Rust?

• egui

  203 19,719 9.8 Rust

  egui: an easy-to-use immediate mode GUI in Rust that runs on both web and native

In the egui demo source files libs.rs , I see a long list of what appears to be linting flags:

• ESLint

  380 24,281 9.7 JavaScript

  Find and fix problems in your JavaScript code.

  

I've always been big fan of eslint, with its plugin system and configurable rules. Eslint makes both importing, writing, and configuring static analysis lints easy. Does clippy aim to function in a similar way to eslint, or is it headed in a different direction?

• InfluxDB

• Clippy

  A bunch of lints to catch common mistakes and improve your Rust code. Book: https://doc.rust-lang.org/clippy/

  

And, yes, clippy is kind of standard linter for Rust. Check its capabilities, flags, usages etc here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy
