Description

This plugin provides Comprehensive security rules for Express.js applications, mapping to OWASP Top 10. By using this plugin, you can proactively identify and mitigate security risks across your entire codebase.

Philosophy

Interlace fosters strength through integration. Instead of stacking isolated rules, we interlace security directly into your workflow to create a resilient fabric of code. We believe tools should guide rather than gatekeep, providing educational feedback that strengthens the developer with every interaction.
