All of us that care about developing quality code with the help of testing can learn from each other, regardless of programming language.
Today we step outside our normal Python comfort zone and talk with Gio about TDD in Swift...
pre-commit started as a framework for running linters and code formatters during git actions via git hooks. It's grown and expanded and now supports an extensive list of languages and actions and manual running of actions. But even at it's core, it's great for letting computers nitpick about whitespace and formatting, so that code reviews can focus on architecture and design.
