coding-standards

To enforce PHP and JavaScript coding standards, require full docstrings for every function, ban inline scripts by moving JavaScript to external files, and track database schema changes in sql/update.sql.

PHP function docstrings must include a Description, Args, and Returns to pass code review and ensure all functions and modules maintain consistent documentation standards across the codebase.

Track database schema changes by documenting any modifications in sql/update.sql, which ensures traceability and maintains a historical record of all database updates across the project.

You should move inline JavaScript to external files because coding standards ban inline scripts, requiring all JavaScript to reside in external files loaded via script tags to improve code quality and maintainability.

Yes, you can apply these coding standards to all functions and modules across the entire codebase, ensuring every PHP and JavaScript component complies with docstring, inline script, and database change tracking requirements.

The best way to document database changes during code review is to record all schema modifications in sql/update.sql, providing full traceability and ensuring all database updates are tracked alongside PHP and JavaScript code changes.
