• Import project - point to project root pom.xml
• There is .editorconfig at the root of the repository and it should be applied automatically.

• We use SonarCloud for static analysis
• The same scans can be executed on the local machine using SonarLint plugin
• Install SonarLint plugin: File - Settings - Plugins - SonarLint

• Configure SonarLint
  • Check "Bind project to SonarCloud / SonarQube"
  • Configure the connection - Click + icon - Select SonarCloud - Enter token: c9e61f6ba34e72faba39c554b984b49712743846
  • Now you should be able to run Sonar scans using the same settings as the SonarCloud project uses (https://sonarcloud.io/project/overview?id=iluwatar_java-design-patterns)
