Standard Ruby

No Configuration Code Linter and Formatter for Ruby

Visit Website

Standard Ruby is a no-configuration code linter and formatter for Ruby. Itโ€™s a great choice for Ruby projects that want to enforce a consistent code style without having to come up with their own standards or spend time configuring a linter.

Standard Ruby is based on the Ruby Style Guide and will automatically format your Ruby code to match the rules outlined in the guide.

While you may think that a no-configuration linter and formatter would be a bad long-term choice, the advantage of StandardRB is that you no longer need to worry about debating style decisions. Instead, you can focus on writing code that adheres to the Ruby Style Guide.

One non-obvious benefit to adopting StandardRB is that it can help new team members get up to speed quickly. You can point them to the Ruby Style Guide and tell them to run StandardRB on the code they write to ease them into the teamโ€™s preferred style.
