| 1.. _development_coding: 2 3Getting the code right 4====================== 5 6While there is much to be said for a solid and community-oriented design 7process, the proof of any kernel development project is in the resulting 8code. It is the code which will be examined by other developers and merged --- 52 unchanged lines hidden (view full) --- 61Note that you can also use the ``clang-format`` tool to help you with 62these rules, to quickly re-format parts of your code automatically, 63and to review full files in order to spot coding style mistakes, 64typos and possible improvements. It is also handy for sorting ``#includes``, 65for aligning variables/macros, for reflowing text and other similar tasks. 66See the file :ref:`Documentation/process/clang-format.rst <clangformat>` 67for more details. 68 | 1.. _development_coding: 2 3Getting the code right 4====================== 5 6While there is much to be said for a solid and community-oriented design 7process, the proof of any kernel development project is in the resulting 8code.
