On approval comments.
A friend of mine came up with a new way to approve pull requests, replacing the usual LGTM (looks good to me) with IOTC (I own this code).
The reasoning behind this is that LGTM is often used too casually - it's easy to say something looks good without really taking responsibility for the code. After all, "good" can mean different things to different people. It's almost like saying, "This code looks okay to me, but I'm not really connected to it."
In contrast, IOTC puts more on your shoulders as the reviewer. It forces you to think more critically about what you're approving to merge into the main branch. When you say IOTC, you're taking full responsibility for the code - even if you didn't write it.
This makes perfect sense in a team environment, where once code is merged, it's owned by the team. Any issues or bugs become your responsibility, especially if the original author isn't around.
Using IOTC means you're attaching yourself to the code even before it is merged, ensuring you fully understand it and confirm its quality. It reminds you that you're going to support this stuff.
And what's your go-to approval comment?

This year, I will mentor a #GSoC project to improve the Checksyle Plugin for @Gradle in the @Kotlin Foundation! It includes offering better declarative syntax in Kotlin DSL, and alignment with new @checkstyle_java features
Looking for interested users!

It is very easy to make code that is checkstyle compliant but just utter crap. So focus on the quality of the code before you focus on checkstyle trivialities.

Notable software repositories use coding conventions. Many enforce them in continuous integration. In Java, this is typically done with Checkstyle. In this work, we use AI to automatically repair coding convention issues, with very high accuracy. "Styler:…lnkd.in/dNweXYW8

In my experience there is a class of person that just loves rules and can't imagine that you don't, so they'll readily impose them and will be very resistant to changing or removing them :-)

We have been 3 (!) major versions behind the current release of Checkstyle (7.8.2 vs. 10.2), which caused build issues with JDK 18. Shame on us!
But kudos to @checkstyle_java, the excellent release and migration notes made the update absolutely painless.

I’d like to continue believing that auto-optimizing imports on commit for changed files is a good idea. A failing build due to checkstyle violations with the jakarta.* namespace says otherwise…

Spring Java Format
A set of plugins that can be applied to any Java project to provide a consistent “Spring” style.
The set currently consists of:

October 21 was really a turning point for my Open-Source Journey.
Thanks to @Hacktoberfest and @DigitalOcean for helping the community to get started with the open-source through this initiative.
I have contributed to @checkstyle_java during my hacktoberfest.

Checkstyle being one of the most amazing project and commununity.
Can't Thanks enough to maintainers, they have guided me with my most silly questions. Proud that it's my first OS organisation where I learnt no less than the best open source practices.

Grabbed an issue to work on @checkstyle_java after a long time(due to time constraints), and can't tell you how much excited I am right now!!!!!!!!

Hey #techtwitter🖐,
I just published a new blog post on Medium where I have talked shared my experience and what I learned so far by contributing to the @checkstyle_java Project.
Do give it a read and share with others too!😊

Documentation makes it quite easy🙂 to understand the working of different parts of the codebase!!
Currently contributing to @checkstyle_java and the docs are so good😍 that it makes contributing quite easy and beginner-friendly!

Джавовый checkstyle имеет отвратительный логотип, в идее он выглядит как будто всегда что-то невалидно, ад перфекциониста.

Spent literally half a day (12 hours) fixing @checkstyle_java CI failures. I now really appreciate the efficiency brought by @gradle.

@checkstyle_java is a development tool to help programmers write Java code that adheres to a coding standard. By default it supports the Google Java Style Guide and Sun Code Conventions, but is highly configurable.
