<h1>Flycheck — Syntax checking for GNU Emacs<a class="headerlink" href="#flycheck-syntax-checking-for-gnu-emacs" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h1>
<p><strong>Flycheck</strong> is a modern on-the-fly syntax checking extension for GNU Emacs,
intended as replacement for the older Flymake extension which is part of GNU
Emacs.  For a detailed comparison to Flymake see <a class="reference internal" href="user/flycheck-versus-flymake.html#flycheck-versus-flymake"><span class="std std-ref">Flycheck versus Flymake</span></a>.</p>
<p>It uses various syntax checking and linting tools to <a class="reference internal" href="user/syntax-checks.html#flycheck-syntax-checks"><span class="std std-ref">automatically check
the contents of buffers</span></a> while you type, and reports
warnings and errors directly in the buffer, or in an optional <a class="reference internal" href="user/error-list.html#flycheck-error-list"><span class="std std-ref">error list</span></a>:</p>
<img alt="_images/flycheck-annotated.png" src="_images/flycheck-annotated.png" />
<p>Out of the box Flycheck supports over <a class="reference internal" href="languages.html#flycheck-languages"><span class="std std-ref">40 different programming languages</span></a> with more than 80 different syntax checking tools, and
comes with a <a class="reference internal" href="developer/developing.html#flycheck-developers-guide"><span class="std std-ref">simple interface</span></a> to define new
syntax checkers.</p>
<p>Many <a class="reference internal" href="community/extensions.html#flycheck-extensions"><span class="std std-ref">3rd party extensions</span></a> provide new syntax
checkers and other features like alternative error displays or mode line
indicators.</p>
<div class="section" id="try-out">
<h2>Try out<a class="headerlink" href="#try-out" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>Flycheck needs GNU Emacs 24.3 or newer, and works best on Unix systems.
<strong>Windows users</strong>, please be aware that Flycheck does not support Windows
officially, although it should mostly work fine on Windows.  See <a class="reference internal" href="user/installation.html#flycheck-windows-support"><span class="std std-ref">Windows
