As a developer, I have faced my fair share of security mishaps. I recall times when I accidentally exposed sensitive data in logs or sent a network request over a non-encrypted HTTP channel when HTTPS was available. I'm sure many of you can relate to these situations. We may not be security experts, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't take measures to protect our applications. This is where Bearer, a new security tool for Ruby and JavaScript apps (Java coming soon), comes into play.

We are happy to announce that we completely rebuilt analysis-tools.dev from scratch with more features and a new design!This is a major milestone for us, as it marks the first time we sat down to reinvision what the project should become in the next few years.

This project started as a way to scratch my own itch:Years later, many people still seem to have the same problem. There are more than 500 static analysis (SAST) tools out there; how can you possibly find the "best" one?

Static analysis is great! It helps improve code quality by inspecting source code without even running it. There are hundreds of great tools to choose from — many are free or open-source. Unfortunately, many projects still don’t make use of static analysis tools for various reasons.

We found that static code analysis is a topic that is attracting a lot of engineers, which care about code-quality and solid engineering standards. Our goal is to create an open community for developers that want to take their code and skill set to the next level.

Today we welcome DeepCode as our first sponsor.It makes us incredibly happy to see the backing of our community project from such a forward-thinking company. Just like us, DeepCode thinks that the space of analysis tools could be vastly improved to increase code quality and foster best practices within organizations of any size.

lizard
Lizard is an extensible Cyclomatic Complexity Analyzer for many programming languages including C/C++ (doesn't require all the header files or Java imports). It also does copy-paste detection (code clone detection/code duplicate detection) and many other forms of static code analysis. Counts lines of code without comments, CCN (cyclomatic complexity number), token count of functions, parameter count of functions.
Mega-Linter
Mega-Linter can handle any type of project thanks to its 70+ embedded Linters, its advanced reporting, runnable on any CI system or locally, with assisted installation and configuration, able to apply formatting and fixes
