Checkstyle Alternatives
Checkstyle is described as 'development tool to help programmers write Java code that adheres to a coding standard. It automates the process of checking Java code to spare humans of this boring (but important) task. This makes it ideal for projects that want to enforce a coding standard' and is an app. There are six alternatives to Checkstyle for a variety of platforms, including Windows, Linux, Mac, Online / Web-based and Java Mobile. The best alternative is Codacy. It's not free, so if you're looking for a free alternative, you could try Pmd or FindBugs. Other great apps like Checkstyle are Simian, SolidSDD - Duplicate Code Detector and SideCI.
- Codacy automates code reviews and monitors code quality on every commit and pull request reporting back the impact of every commit or pull request, issues concerning code style, best practices, security, and many others.
