Hah, I wish I was an Ent! But I wasn't even born until well after 1978.
However, specfically for JavaScript which is the language I was using when I first started programming it seems that the first linter wasn't released until 2011. At first there wasn't even `console.log`. I also think access to these tools has improved considerably. These days any introductory resource will point your towards VS Code which has a built-in marketplace which will install these tools for you at the click of a button (cross-platform!). That certainly wasn't the case even 10 years ago.
