## Shell scripts
 | 
						|
Shell scripts should loosely follow the general Alpine style which is derived from the Linux Kernel guidelines, i.e. tabs for indentation etc.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
It's also useful to run `shellcheck` on the scripts.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Go code
 | 
						|
New Go code should be formatted with `gofmt`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## C code
 | 
						|
C code written from scratch should follow the
 | 
						|
[Linux kernel coding guidelines](https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/Documentation/CodingStyle)
 | 
						|
as much as it makes sense for userspace code.  You can check your code with [checkpatch.pl](https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/scripts/checkpatch.pl) like this:
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
checkpatch.pl --no-tree --file <sourcefile>
 | 
						|
```
