+Lintpref
+========
+
+The lintpref linter is a simple linter for libpref files to check for duplicate
+entries between :searchfox:`modules/libpref/init/all.js` and
+:searchfox:`modules/libpref/init/StaticPrefList.yaml`. If a duplicate is found,
+lintpref will raise an error and emit the ``all.js`` line where you can find
+the duplicate entry.
+
+
+Running Locally
+---------------
+
+The linter can be run using mach:
+
+ .. parsed-literal::
+
+     $ mach lint --linter lintpref
+
+
+Fixing Lintpref Errors
+----------------------
+
+In most cases, duplicate entries should be avoided and the duplicate removed
+from ``all.js``. If for any reason a pref should exist in both files, the pref
+should be added to ``IGNORE_PREFS`` in :searchfox:`tools/lint/libpref/__init__.py`.
