As of 2021, webhint is included by default in Edge DevTools. With DevTools open, webhint will analyze sites automatically, and results and recommended fixes will appear in the Issues tab. Additionally, underlines in the Elements tab show which parts of the codebase are affected. To learn more, visit the Microsoft Edge documentation.
