I\'m using JSHint for the JavaScript project (with the Visual Studio Code). And in this project I use async / await, which JSHint highlights as errors.
The OP asked it there were any workarounds. It's a kludge, but I've replaced all my 'async' or 'await' with 'async /**/' and 'await /**/'. Then a quick script to swap them into '/*async*/' and '/*await*/' allows me to check with jshint.
