Should I use JSLint or JSHint JavaScript validation?

Viewed 160239

I am currently validating my JavaScript against JSLint and making progress on, it's assisting me to write better JavaScript - in particular in working with the Jquery library.

I have now come across JSHint, a fork of JSLint.
So I am wondering for web applications, which are very much JavaScript was driven, which is the better or most applicable validation tool to work against:

  • JSLint or JSHint?

I want to decide now on a validation mechanism and moving forward, use this for client side validation.

And Difference between jshint and jslint? Please explain in single javascript example.
