SonarQube And SonarLint difference

Question

How exactly is sonarQube different from SonarLint ? SonarQube has a server associated with it and Sonar lint works more like a plugin. But what are their specific difference

Answer 1

It should be added that SonarQube also performs scans with 3rd party analyzers (findBugs, checkstyle, PMD) whereas SonarLint does not include those. I think the reason is a prioritization on performance and findBugs relying on java byte-code.

Thereby your findings in SonarQube and SonarLint can vary, if the underlying quality profile uses 3rd-party scanners.
