Introduction
============

[](#introduction)

This project is simply a way to package up and distribute the Moodle Coding Standard which is defined in the following project: [moodle-local\_codechecker](https://github.com/moodlehq/moodle-local_codechecker)

This project does not attempt to do anything else. If there are problems with the standard, then the problems should be addressed in the `moodle-local_codechecker` project. Once the problem is fixed, it can be synced from `moodle-local_codechecker` into this project.
