# Credo [](https://github.com/rrrene/credo/actions?query=branch%3Amaster) [](https://hexdocs.pm/credo)
Credo is a static code analysis tool for the Elixir language with a focus on teaching and code consistency.
It can show you refactoring opportunities in your code, complex code fragments, warn you about common mistakes, show inconsistencies in your naming scheme and - if needed - help you enforce a desired coding style.

## Installation and Usage
The easiest way to add Credo to your project is by [using Mix](http://elixir-lang.org/getting-started/mix-otp/introduction-to-mix.html).
Add `:credo` as a dependency to your project's `mix.exs`:
```elixir
defp deps do
[
{:credo, "~> 1.7", only: [:dev, :test], runtime: false}
]
end
```
And run:
$ mix deps.get
$ mix credo
## Documentation
Documentation is [available on Hexdocs](https://hexdocs.pm/credo/)
