JavaScript (@hint/parser-javascript)

The javascript parser allows hints to analyze JavaScript files.

This package is installed automatically by webhint:

``bash
npm install hint --save-dev
`

To use it, activate it via the [.hintrc][hintrc] configuration file:

`json
{
"connector": {...},
"formatters": [...],
"hints": {
...
},
"parsers": ["javascript"],
...
}
`

Note: The recommended way of running webhint is as a devDependency of
your project.
