Can't get Atom Linter to work

I'm new to Atom, the text edit, and I installed many packages, including Linter

https://github.com/AtomLinter/Linter

But it's not showing errors or highlighting code, it's just getting ignored.

Do any of you know what I should do to get this to work?

What does linter do in atom?

Linter is a base linter provider for the hackable Atom Editor. Additionally, you need to install a specific linter for your language. You will find a full list on atomlinter.github.io. It provides a top-level API to its consumer so that they can visualize errors and other types of messages with ease.

You have to additionally install a linter package for your desired language.

I needed to remove atom config and start from scratch to make linter working

mv ~/.atom ~/.atom.bak
