Feflow
How to write cross-platform Node.js code
How to write cross-platform Node.js code. Why you should care: according to the 2018 Node.js user survey, 24% of Node.js developers use Windows locally and 41% use Mac. In production, 85% use Linux and 1% use BSD. Installers for each major OS are available on the Node.js website. To install, switch and update Node.js versions nvm can be used on Linux/Mac. It does not support Windows but nvm-windows, nvs and ps-nvm (for PowerShell) are alternatives that do. nve can be used to run a single command with one or several different Node.js versions. nvexeca can be used to do the same programmatically. The character encoding can be specified using an encoding option with most relevant Node.js core methods. While ASCII characters display correctly on all terminals, this is not the case for all characters. -

TypeWiz
Automatically discover and add missing types in your TypeScript code
Manually adding types to your codebase can be a daunting task, especially given how much room there is for errors. It’s true that in some cases, the types will be obvious by just reading the code. But when I was adding types to a big project I inherited recently, I found myself actually running the code and setting a breakpoint inside a function to figure out the types that were being passed to it. This gave me an idea: build a tool that does this automatically and much faster, and then call it TypeWiz! TypeWiz is a tool that helps you enrich your TypeScript code while saving your precious time by automating the task of adding types to your code. TypeScript helps you ensure code quality (and also helps you explore your code), but it can only go so far on it’s own: you must provide it with type information to make the most of it. -

Code security review tool for C/C++, C#, VB, PHP, Java, PL/SQL, COBOL.
VCG is an automated code security review tool for C++, C#, VB, PHP, Java, PL/SQL and COBOL, which is intended to speed up the code review process by identifying bad/insecure code. New beta functionality has been added for R. It has a few features that should make it useful. In addition to performing some more complex checks it also has a config file for each language that basically allows you to add any bad functions (or other text) that you want to search for. It attempts to find phrases within comments that can indicate broken code and it provides stats and a pie chart (for the entire codebase and for individual files) showing relative proportions of code, whitespace, comments, 'ToDo'-style comments and bad code. I've tried to produce something which searches intelligently for buffer overflows and signed/unsigned comparison in C, violations of OWASP recommendations in Java code, etc. Current version: 2.3.2 -

SonarJS
SonarSource Static Analyzer for JavaScript and TypeScript
This SonarSource project is a static code analyzer for JavaScript, TypeScript and CSS languages. In order to analyze JavaScript, TypeScript or CSS code, you need to have a supported version of Node.js installed on the machine running the scan. Recommended versions are the previous LTS version v14 and the latest version - v16. We recommend using the latest available LTS version (v16 as of today) for optimal stability and performance. v12 is still supported, but it already reached end-of-life and is deprecated. If node is not available in the PATH, you can use property sonar.nodejs.executable to set an absolute path to Node.js executable. If you have a community plugin for CSS analysis installed on your SonarQube instance it will conflict with the analysis of CSS, so it should be removed. -

Guide to Open Source Code Review Software
Open source code review software is a type of software specifically designed to help developers identify problems in their source code and correct them. It allows developers to quickly analyze their own software or that of other developers to make sure it meets certain standards or specifications. By using an open source code review tool, developers can evaluate the quality of code, check for potential bugs and security flaws, optimize performance, and improve coding practices within the organization.
This type of software provides access to a variety of review capabilities such as automated testing tools, peer reviews, and defect tracking systems. Automated testing tools are used to compare different versions of the same program in order to identify any differences between them. Peer reviews involve having experienced professionals examine the project's design, coding architecture, and user experience in order to make sure everything fits together correctly. Lastly, defect tracking systems provide a way for users to assign tasks related to bug fixes or feature development which can be tracked by everyone involved in the project.
Open source code review software allows teams or organizations to collaborate on projects more efficiently by creating transparent communication channels across all levels of development such as management, technical staffs and external stakeholders who may be involved in specific stages within the production cycle. They usually include features that enable team members or contributors working remotely from different locations around the world—for example distributed version control systems (DVCSs), issue-tracking databases like JIRA with integrated bug reports and feature requests so team members can monitor progress without needing manual updates from each other. Additionally they offer synchronization services which allow admins to keep source codes up-to-date allowing remote workers access latest versions when needed even if changes have been made since they last logged into system.
In summary open source code review provides powerful tools for managing complex projects; where transparency between team members is paramount for successful completion. For unique features may require specific types tools not provided by this type software custom application programming interfaces (APIs) could be developed easily accommodate needs any organization or individual looking build best possible product available market today

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.
