Code Style

C++

• Use clang-format before committing. Read this for VSCode and for CLion it should work automatically by detecting the .clang-format file.
• Never use raw pointers, prefer std::shared_ptr etc.
• Check if something exists in the standard library before you reinvent the wheel!
• Prefer static_cast etc. instead of C style cast
• Use auto on iterator types (ranged for) and when the type is obvious, for example casting or std::make_shared

Python

• Currently pycodestyle, flake8, and isort are used as a basic check. Read this for VSCode, ideally you adhere to pylint too but it can be very strict so right now it wont be enforced.
• If you are writing a function, please use type hinting for the signature. For other places, only use if necessary, for example a situation where the types are confusing.
