nicklockwood/SwiftFormat
This system is a comprehensive Swift code formatting and linting tool that operates as a command-line interface, an Xcode source editor extension, and a Swift Package Manager plugin. It provides automated code style enforcement through a wide array of configurable formatting rules and supports cross-platform development with Linux and Windows build infrastructure. Additionally, the repository includes several example libraries and test snapshots, such as a 3D geometry library, an expression evaluator, and a declarative UI layout system, which serve as both usage references and regression test fixtures.

About this page
- The description of this project is derived from its own commit history, not from its README.
- The score is its highest published measurement, taken on 3 August 2026 at a pinned commit. It is not a live figure and does not change until the project is measured again.
- Measured at commit 561f2253c5 — the exact code this score is about.
- Scored under rubric rubric-2026.08.18. Score the same commit under that rubric and you get the same number.
