Hi everyone,
I have just added Credo to my project and I really liked it. I would like to take it a step further and implement further checks via plugins but I’m struggling to find a list of them… so my questions for you all are:
- Which Credo plugins are you using (if any)?
- Is the community gravitating towards a common set of checks other than those included in Credo itself?
Thanks a ton for any help.

This results in the same conclusion as the elixir formater arrived to:
The consistency over every random project you can open on the internet makes them more readable and easier to understand, simply because everyone formats/writes code in a similar style.

Adobe has some. I know there are others but none off the top of my head.
There are definitely a lot of style plugins that are up to personal taste and I think should stay that way, so I’d suggest looking through the disabled ones that come with Credo as there are some good ones! I particularly like the one that forces you to always pass the
:asyncoption touse ExUnit.Case. This way you can be relatively sure that whoever set it did so for a reason and didn’t absent-mindedly choose the default.pdgonzalez872
Default, not even having a credo file.
Just having something in place gets you 80% there, if not more. You get diminishing returns as you add more, the value it provides starts decreasing after a while, especially in big teams. Checks that are disabled/added because someone that left 3 years ago didn’t quite like it/or thought it was amazing at the time will haunt you later on.
IMO, your miles may vary.

A lib called ‘styler’ can fix those things.
