Ack is a tool like grep, optimized for programmers. It is designed for programmers with large heterogeneous trees of source code, ack is written purely in portable Perl 5 and takes advantage of the power of Perl’s regular expressions. It’s fast because it only searches the stuff it makes sense to search.
You can searches entire trees by default while ignoring Subversion, Git and other VCS directories and other files that aren’t your source code.
You spend hours every day searching through source code. Ack makes it as quick and easy as possible to do that searching and to remove as much drudgerous typing as possible. The less typing you have to do, the better. Ack costs nothing. It’s 100% free and open source under Artistic License v2.0.

JSHint is a community-driven tool to detect errors and potential problems in JavaScript code and to enforce your team’s coding conventions. It is very flexible so you can easily adjust it to your particular coding guidelines and the environment you expect your code to execute in. The goal is to help JavaScript developers write complex programs without worrying about typos and language gotchas.
Any code base eventually becomes huge at some point, and simple mistakes–that would not show themselves when written–can become show stoppers and waste hours of debugging. And this is when static code analysis tools come into play and help developers to spot such problems. JSHint scans a program written in JavaScript and reports about commonly made mistakes and potential bugs. The potential problem could be a syntax error, a bug due to implicit type conversion, a leaking variable or something else.
