NOTE: Rember to save. Linting works on saved files !

You can also configure the plugin to automatically Lint on Save. See the Reference section for details

Quickfixes

For some warnings and errors there are shortcut operations to do fixes in your code.

• Unused import: Allows you to quickly remove an unused import
• Missing type annotation: Facility to add type annotation (top level expressions only)
• Type mismatch: Facility to fix a type annotation that doesn't match the implementation
• Naming errors: For some spelling errors the compiler will provide helpful suggestions. Feature to quickly apply one of those suggestions (if any)

NOTE: When an linter message is open and a quick fix operation is available you will have buttons for each possible action. Pressing Enter will invoke the first action available (which is typically the one you want)
