about the sonarcloud integration

This repo is linked to a project in sonarcloud and that services it's free only if your source code is written with non commercial goals. You can check this document and this GitHub Action information if you want to know more about the integration.

about the git hook scripts

We're using Git Hooks scripts using husky, what a nice tool!

So, anytime you'll make a commit you'll see something like that

  $ git commit -am 'feat: add basic husky support'
