Explore how to simplify lint authoring for Erlang code using Semantic Search and Replace techniques in this 22-minute conference talk from Code BEAM Stockholm 2025. Learn about the two essential components of linting: identifying problems in code and providing fixes, and discover how traditional approaches require scanning code for patterns, checking each occurrence, and implementing code changes based on findings. Understand how Semantic Search and Replace functions as a regex-like string matching system specifically designed for Erlang syntax, enabling developers to match patterns and extract relevant code segments more efficiently. Discover practical methods for dramatically simplifying all three steps of the linting process - pattern identification, problem verification, and code fixing - through this innovative approach that streamlines lint development workflows for Erlang developers.
