clang-tidy in Visual Studio Code
summary
Shows how to run clang-tidy from the command line and inside Visual Studio Code, using a workspace .clang-tidy file to allow the literal 100 while still flagging 1 as a magic number; demonstrates CLI checks, VS Code’s “Run Code Analysis on Active File” and the run automatically setting so saves trigger analysis, and explains the codeAnalysisExclude setting to skip third‑party headers. Quick‑fix application is not yet available in the editor but is promised for a future release.
