Online Python syntax checker for educational institutions.

pep8plus is an open-source online tool built for educational institutions to help students enforce and maintain Python programming standards. Powered by Ruff, Flake8 and Pylint, pep8plus is built on the principle of customisability, ease of use and user experience.

Warning This project is still in its early stages. Hence, bugs and ironically, questionable programming practices may be present.

Here are a few major features of pep8plus:

• Customisation: pep8plus offers three different popular linters: Ruff, Pylint and Flake8. With over 800 built-in convention guides and rules combined, all convention settings are able to be easily activated and deactivated to share with students.
• Shareability: Easily share customised convention settings with students by generating a custom link.
• Open-source: pep8plus gives the opportunity for institutions to host the project and implement their own conventions and plugins.

and more!

Convention rules are given tags which are colour-coded based on their severity.

Simply run python server.py to host the project:

python server.py

pep8plus was created as a school project with the aspiration of helping other young Pythonistas enforce and learn python coding practices. The purpose of this project is to provide educators with a transparent, customisable and easy solution to helping their students enforce Python conventions.
