Most of them apply to JavaScript, but some will make sense no matter what technology you are using.

> I agree that cover most common mistakes done by people who uses javascript, and maybe for people who don't often use javascript, i just didn't find anything new, maybe more detail or more examples? Good article though

> Mostly good points on common mistakes, but also mentions violations of his linting opinions as a 'common mistake'. Semicolons aren't needed in javascript.
