Here are our [1] LESS code conventions. Basically, CSSLint doesn’t support any of our existing conventions. It’s more concerned about errors, compatibility, and performance. Our rules are mainly about syntax. We could write (in JavaScript) CSSLint rules to support our current code conventions though. Here [2] are some custom rules.

Since our code convention doesn’t talk about the existing CSSLint rules [3], in order to figure out which rules are controversial I think we should all discuss the existing rules [3].

Also, the VE team uses CSSLint; possibly other teams too. However, I don’t think any team is using lesslint.

CSS is a beast and any help is going to be useful.

As Jon said, we probably need a longer spike/task to see if any other teams are doing CSS linting and there are already conventions we can use, and to determine what validation rules we want to use.

Which rules would MobileFrontend be able to use from the start?
Which rules might be controversial to adopt?
