# Scan Your Code

Run SLDS Linter against your project to check for any issues and generate a SARIF report. This report helps you identify the components to be updated.

In VS Code, in your project root directory, follow these steps.

1. Open a Terminal.
2. Run SLDS Linter.
   The linting output displays in the console and includes the row and column numbers.

   ```
   npx @salesforce-ux/slds-linter lint
   ```

3. Select the displayed numbers to go to specific lines in the source code (Command+Click on macOS).
4. Produce a SARIF report in your project’s root directory.

   ```
   npx @salesforce-ux/slds-linter report
   ```

   Optionally, you can specify an output directory by using `-o [output directory]`.

   ```
   npx @salesforce-ux/slds-linter report -o [output directory]
   ```

   The output file is named as `slds-linter-report.sarif`.

5. Open the generated SARIF report file.
6. Make a note of how many components SLDS Linter has identified for fixing.
