API
There is a simple API that can be used to find an explanation for linter
messages dynamically. It's designed for integration into IDEs or web UIs. All
responses are served wtih an Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * header so you can
request explanations from client-side JavaScript. See the documentation
for all the details.
