reviewdog
Automated code review tool integrated with any code analysis tools
I’d like to introduce reviewdog! An automated code review tool working with any lint tools and supports local run as well. “reviewdog” provides a way to post review comments to code hosting services, such as GitHub, automatically by integrating with any linter tools with ease. It uses any output of lint tools, with translation if required, and posts them as a comment if the file and line are in diff of patches to review. reviewdog also supports running in a local environment to filter the output of lint tools by diff. We can use various linters and static code analysis tools to detect such problems in local machines, editors, CI services. However, here is the problem. Static analysis tools may report false-positive results. Reporting false-positive results itself is ok, but due to the false-positive results we cannot make build fail and it becomes difficult for us to find true positive results from messed up analysis results. -

Periphery
A tool to identify unused code in Swift projects
A tool to identify unused code in Swift projects. The scan command is Periphery's primary function. To begin a guided setup, simply change to your project directory. To get coherent results from Periphery, it's crucial to understand the implications of the build targets you choose to analyze. For example, imagine a project consisting of three targets: App, Lib and Tests. The App target imports Lib, and the Tests targets imports both App and Lib. If you were to provide all three to the --targets option then Periphery will be able to analyze your project as a whole. However, if you only choose to analyze App and Lib, but not Tests, Periphery may report some instances of unused code that are only referenced by Tests. Therefore when you suspect Periphery has provided an incorrect result, it's important to consider the targets that you have chosen to analyze. -

How Users Can Get Started With Open Source Code Review Software
Getting started with using open source code review software is relatively straightforward and can be achieved in three main steps.
First, you will need to choose the specific open source code review software that best suits your needs. This step requires doing a bit of research on what solutions are available, so you can compare features and decide which one fits your particular requirements. You may also want to consider factors such as ease of use, cost (if any) and compatibility with your existing technology stack when making the decision.
Once you’ve chosen the appropriate tool for your project, the next step is to download it from its repository or website. The installation process may vary depending on the type of computer system you are using but in most cases, it should only take a few minutes depending on how quickly your connection downloads files.
The final step is to create an account for yourself or members of your team within the code review software so everyone has access when needed. This will usually involve setting up user roles and permissions based on who needs to do what within the application so they have access to only those areas they need while keeping other parts secure if desired. Once these accounts have been set up, users can now start working with the code review software by creating reviews, assigning tasks or even file reports if required. Working with these tools can be challenging at first because there is often a lot of information to take in but over time they get simpler and easier as users learn more about their particular platform's features and functions.
