✨ This checklist helps you to make your code (more) Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable. ✨
The FAIR principles originated in data management, but are as significant when writing a script, function, analysis, toolbox (any sort of code). Recently the FAIR principles have been rigorously applied to software in a paper
💡 To simplify your task, we created a checklist with easy-to-follow instructions that guide you through the process of making your code more FAIR. 💡
🍝 Spaghetti code is a disorganized, tangled, and difficult-to-follow programming structure that hinders reproducibility during and after research by making it challenging to debug, interpret, or extend.
Planning ahead helps to improve and structure the code you produce and share.
Therefore our catchphrase is: SPAGHETTI CODE? TRY FAIR LASAGNA. 🍝
🎉 This project is still in development, and we’d love your feedback! Feel free to share your thoughts via the issue tracker or by commenting on the checklist. 🎉
