Code Governance

​
Why it is a big problem?

Let’s, understand the problem from two different perspectives
  • Ensuring Adherence to Organization Standards: The biggest challenge for them is to ensure that the code written by developers or AI adheres to the company-specific best practices, maintains the security posture, and incorporates past learnings.
    It can be as simple as how the organization handles logging or as complex as how a perticular language should use event loops in asynchronous calls.
  • Impact of Non-Adherence: Non-adherence leads to an increase in tech debt, compliance issues, and wasted development time spent fixing recurring known issues.

How can we fix it?

​
Integrating Code Governance into IDEs and PR Reviews

Imagine if developers had access to this intelligence right within their IDEs. In real-time, they could see if they’re violating coding standards, security policies, or past learnings, and fix it right then and there. Even if issues slip past the IDE, they’d be flagged during the pull request review stage.
