Coding Standards and Review

Maintain code quality and consistency across contributors.

  • Keep standards automated via formatter/linter/type checks.
  • Review for correctness, maintainability, and security impact.
  • Keep PR size small to increase review quality.

Alternatives and when to choose them

  • Strict style rules in large teams.
  • Lightweight standards in small prototypes.

Implementation checklist

  • Enforce lint + format + types in CI.
  • Define review checklist and ownership.
  • Track review latency and recurring defects.

Common pitfalls

  • Style-only reviews with no behavioral checks.
  • Waiving CI gates under delivery pressure.
