* Archinstall uses [tabs instead of spaces](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#tabs-or-spaces) simply to make it
easier for non-IDE developers to navigate the code *(Tab display-width should be equal to 4 spaces)*. Exception to the
rule are comments that need fine-tuned indentation for documentation purposes.
* [Line length](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#maximum-line-length) should aim for no more than 100
characters, but not strictly enforced.
* [Line length](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#maximum-line-length) a maximum line length is enforced via flake8 with 236 characters
* [Line breaks before/after binary operator](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#should-a-line-break-before-or-after-a-binary-operator)
is not enforced, as long as the style of line breaks is consistent within the same code block.
* Archinstall should always be saved with **Unix-formatted line endings** and no other platform-specific formats.

Most of these style guidelines have been put into place after the fact *(in an attempt to clean up the code)*.<br>
There might therefore be older code which does not follow the coding convention and the code is subject to change.
## Git hooks
`archinstall` ships pre-commit hooks that make it easier to run check such as `mypy` and `flake8` locally.
The checks are listed in `.pre-commit-config.yaml` and can be installed via
```
pre-commit install
```
This will install the pre-commit hook and run it every time a `git commit` is executed.
## Documentation
If you'd like to contribute to the documentation, refer to [this guide](docs/README.md) on how to build the documentation locally.
