I like to detect patterns at work and automate tasks when possible. When working for BYU Continuing Education, I noticed that key review steps were not solidified and therefore they were easily skipped. Also, best practices for code were not always followed.

This was back in the day before VS Code and linting were common. And because our team editor was very cumbersome to extend, I decided it would be easier to build a chrome extension that would inspect code reviews and automatically suggest a comment to add to the review. It would also provide tutorials about the suggestions. This saved hours of work and helped catch bugs well before they went to production.

This was built during my 10% time and after I had built up a decent number of custom and regular expression rules I provided it to my team for general use.
