 Coding constraints:
 
 - Objects that are not supposed to be used outside the current scope MUST be named starting with `_` (underscore): [PEP 316](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0316/#id12)
+
+For your convenience, pre-commit hooks are configured to check against these constraints. Provided, you have installed the development requirements (see above), activate `pre-commit` to run on every `git commit`:
+
+```sh
+pre-commit install

+
+Also, a helper with conventional commits is installed with the development requirements that you could leverage to easily comply with it. Just use `cz c` instead of `git commit`
