🔎 Git Hooks Without the Hassle – Meet CaptainHook

Consistency and automated checks are key to maintaining code quality in a team. Git hooks are an excellent tool for enforcing standards early in the workflow, running tests and validators locally before code even hits the repository.

While our teams already rely on Git hooks to ensure quality, configuring them across projects can be a hassle. Enter libraries or tools that simplify the setup and management of Git hooks, making it easier to implement coding standards consistently across all projects.

In this article, we’ll show you how CaptainHook streamlines Git hook configuration, within a real-life docker-based local environment. We’ll provide examples for running validations, tests, and more so that every commit meets your quality standards with minimal effort.
