For the tools used for OpenUI5 content development, guidelines and recommendations have been introduced.
The following guidelines and recommendations apply:
To make issues with mixed tabs/spaces and windows-style linebreaks visible immediately, we recommend to configure your JavaScript editor to display whitespace and linebreak characters.
We also recommend to configure the code formatter of your code editor accordingly.
Do not use the auto formatter to format entire files. The auto formatter handles many lines and makes it more difficult to find out who actually wrote the code.
OpenUI5 uses ESLint to check JavaScript sources. A recommended set of rules and settings can be found in our OpenUI5 project.
