GitHub Code Scanning: The Future of Code Analysis

GitHub code scanning is a powerful tool that builds on the capabilities of LGTM.com. Powered by the CodeQL analysis engine, it provides comprehensive code analysis to identify potential security issues.

The core features of GitHub code scanning include in-depth code examination, the ability to flag potential security vulnerabilities in pull requests and on the repository's security tab. This helps developers ensure the quality and security of their code.

To use GitHub code scanning, existing users of LGTM.com will be guided through a migration process. Starting at the end of August 2022, no new user sign-ups or new repositories will be accepted on LGTM.com. In October, efforts will be made to help migrate repositories to GitHub code scanning by creating pull requests with a GitHub Actions workflow for code scanning. By the end of November, LGTM.com will stop fetching new commits and analyzing pull requests, and the service will be shut down completely on December 16th.

Compared to other code analysis tools, GitHub code scanning offers seamless integration with the GitHub ecosystem, making it a convenient choice for developers. It provides a more streamlined and efficient process for ensuring code quality and security.

In conclusion, GitHub code scanning is a significant step forward in code analysis and security, offering a more comprehensive and integrated solution for developers.
