During the WordCamp Boston 2013 contributor day, I had a great conversation with Matt Wiebe, Corey Frang and others about improving the quality of the JavaScript inside of WordPress. Our work that day lead to a .jshintrc file being added to core, and we’re hoping to continue move forward with tidying up the JS across the WordPress application.
I just posted on the Make WordPress Core blog about JavaScript code standards, bringing everybody up to speed on the conversations that occurred and the decisions that have been made. If you’re interested in joining the discussion and helping us improve this code, head on over and leave a comment!
