Known issues

Thonny-EduLint versions until 0.6.2 (released 2024-09-05) guided users to install Thonny Plugin thonny-edulint and Thonny Package edulint. Versions 0.6.2 and later work around this issue, now it's sufficient to install just Thonny Plugin thonny-edulint.

Original recommendation (now outdated)

Due to bug in Thonny 4.0.0 to (at least) 4.1.4 there are two steps required to install thonny-edulint.

1. Thonny -> Tools -> Manage plug-ins... -> thonny-edulint -> Install
2. Thonny -> Tools -> Manage packages... -> edulint -> Install

If you forget the second step, the code linting will fail and give you a message reminding you that it's necessary.

The bug should be fixed in Thonny 4.1.2, after which this workaround shouldn't be necessary. More info is in this issue and the one referred from it.
