This guideline should help you getting started a new software
development project (or improving an existing one!) in the Research and
Development Department of the Göttingen State and University Library.\
Our goal is to establish better software quality by following standards
the developer team has mutually agreed upon. Roughly basing on the
[DARIAH Technical
Reference](https://dariah-eric.github.io/technical-reference/), these
standards are discussed, worked out, and decided in the Software Quality
Working Group, which meets biweekly on Tuesdays at 12:30-13:30. However,
they aren't cast in stone, so in case you have a good idea for a better
standard, feel free to contribute!

-**Java**: The Java style guide can be found [here](./styles/rdd-eclipse-java-google-style.xml). It's based on the [Google style guide for Java](https://github.com/google/styleguide) with some minor RDD specific setting. You can configure Eclipse to use it automatically at *Eclipse > Preferences > Java > Code Style > Formatter*. Just load the RDD Eclipse Java Google Style in the formatter preferences and use it in your RDD projects.
