Introduction to Code Quality
Code quality is the foundation for maintainable, scalable, and reliable mobile applications. Proper code quality practices ensure consistency, readability, maintainability, and reduce bugs. Code quality includes coding standards, static analysis, code reviews, and continuous improvement.
Linting and static analysis automatically detect code issues, enforce standards, and help maintain consistency. Integration of linting into the development workflow is critically important for maintaining quality and catching issues early.
