csslint: Specify certain rules to ignore.
$ csslint --ignore=${ids,rules-count,shorthand} ${file-css}
try on your machine

The command "csslint --ignore=${ids,rules-count,shorthand} ${file-css}" is used to run the CSSLint tool with specific options and a CSS file as input.

Here is a breakdown of the different parts of the command:

  1. "csslint": This is the name of the CSSLint command-line tool, which is a utility used for checking CSS code quality and identifying potential issues or errors.

  2. "--ignore=${ids,rules-count,shorthand}": This is an option used to specify what rules or checks should be ignored by CSSLint. In this case, the "${ids,rules-count,shorthand}" part represents a comma-separated list of rule identifiers to ignore. Any rules corresponding to these identifiers will not be checked by CSSLint when analyzing the CSS file.

  3. "${file-css}": This is a placeholder representing the path or filename of the CSS file that you want to analyze using CSSLint. You need to replace "${file-css}" with the actual path or filename of your CSS file.

So, when you run this command, CSSLint will check the specified CSS file for potential issues and errors, but it will ignore the rules or checks related to the given rule identifiers like "ids", "rules-count", and "shorthand".
