Superseded by a newer repository, this is a historical archive.

So what is it?

This is the old source code for analysis-tools.dev, a website that catalogs and organizes software analysis tools, programs that automatically check code for bugs, security issues, performance problems, and other quality concerns. The README notes that this repository has been replaced by a newer version, but it's still here as a historical record. The website itself is built with Gatsby, a JavaScript tool that generates fast, static websites. At its core, the site lists different analysis tools across programming languages, allowing developers to discover and compare the right tools for their projects. It's maintained by a community of contributors rather than a single company, which is why the README emphasizes sponsorships from companies like Semgrep and CodeScene that benefit from having developers find good analysis solutions. If you wanted to help improve the website, you'd download the code, install a few JavaScript dependencies (Webpack and Yarn), run a local development server, and edit the pages. Your changes would appear instantly in your browser as you save files. It's set up to be contributor-friendly, with a straightforward process for submitting improvements through pull requests. The project is fairly straightforward from a technical perspective, it's a static website rather than a complex application with databases or real-time features. That simplicity makes sense for its purpose: it's a reference guide and directory, not a tool that needs to do heavy computation. The README explicitly notes this was superseded, so if you're interested in contributing, you'd want to head to the newer repository instead.
