# GitHub Super-Linter Slim Image Action

The **GitHub Super-Linter** maintains `two` major images:

- `super-linter/super-linter:v5`
- `super-linter/super-linter:slim-v5`

In order to help users pull this image more naturally, the `action.yml` in this directory can help users pull the `slim image`.

## Slim Image

The slim `super-linter/super-linter:slim-v5` comes with all supported linters but removes the following:

- `rust` linters
- `dotenv` linters
- `armttk` linters
- `pwsh` linters
- `c#` linters

By removing these linters, we were able to bring the image size down by `2gb` and drastically speed up the build and download time.
The behavior will be the same for non-supported languages, and will skip languages at runtime.
Example usage:

```yml
