Closure Compiler is a JavaScript optimizing compiler. It parses your
JavaScript, analyzes it, removes dead code and rewrites and minimizes
what's left. It also checks syntax, variable references, and types, and
warns about common JavaScript pitfalls. It is used in many of Google's
JavaScript apps, including Gmail, Google Web Search, Google Maps, and
Google Docs.
This binary checks for style issues such as incorrect or missing JSDoc
usage, and missing goog.require() statements. It does not do more advanced
checks such as typechecking.
