Byte-sized RSE: Code style and linting

The Software Sustainability Institute (www.software.ac.uk) is an EPSRC, AHRC, BBSRC, ESRC, NERC, MRC and STFC funded national facility that cultivates world-class research with software.We help people build better software, and we work with researchers, developers, funders and infrastructure providers to identify key issues and best practice in research software.

This session introduces the importance of code style and linting in writing clean, consistent, and maintainable code.

RSC: Careers and Skills in Research Software

This Research Software Camp will be delivered over 2 weeks. Through a combination of hands-on workshops, a panel discussion and blog posts, attendees will gain a strong foundation in both the technical and professional competencies in research software.

<p><strong><strong>Please note that this session is funded by UKRN, with the primary audience being the UKRN network. Tickets will be made available to the general public on 3 November.</strong></strong></p><p>This session introduces the importance of code style and linting in writing clean, consistent, and maintainable code. You will learn how following a defined style guide improves code readability and collaboration, and how automated tools, known as linters, can help identify and fix style issues early in the development process. We will explore common linting tools and how to integrate them into your software development workflow.</p>
