-A linter is a tool that automatically analyzes code to identify potential errors, stylistic issues, or deviations from coding standards. It helps ensure consistency, readability, and best practices by flagging common mistakes, such as syntax errors, unused variables, or improper formatting. Linters are essential for improving code quality, preventing bugs, and maintaining a clean codebase, especially in collaborative development environments [@enwiki:1218663830]. `{lintr}` is an open-source package that provides linters for R programming language, which is an interpreted, dynamically-typed programming language [@base2023]. It is a popular choice for statistical analysis and visualization, and is used by a wide range of researchers and data scientists. Therefore, `{lintr}` is a valuable tool for R users to help improve the quality and reliability of their code.
