Plans for the future ~ What YOU can do!

And so my fellow SWT-students: Ask not what SwaLint can do for you, ask what you can do for SwaLint!

Just kidding, here is a list of ideas that could be done/improved in the future

• Improve Autolinting

  • Add the ability to ignore possible defects found by the autolinter. This should not be done globally and have a GUI support.
  • Only lint "real" changes and not all observed classes to improve performance.

• Smalltalk CI integration

  • An integration with SmalltalkCI so that commits fail when the linter finds defects for the project.
  • Ignoring of defects is necessary for this.

• Overview pyramid

  • It would be nice if the overview pyramid is fixed and integrated again.
  • one could also think of other/more visualizations.

• Automated fixing

  • For simple rules (e.g. dotsAfterReturnConsistency) the linter should suggest an automated fix.

• And as always there are plenty of things to improve and refactor!
