+## 1. Linting
+
+You can lint your files locally with:
+
+```bash
+docker compose -f build/docker-compose.linting.yaml up
+```
+
+### 1.1. Python Linting
+
+Ensure that all Python files pass linting checks without issues.
+Tools such as `black` are already present in this project.
+Regular linting ensures that the code adheres to the project's style guide, enhancing readability and maintainability.
+
+### 1.2. Markdown Linting
+
+Lint all markdown files with `markdownlint`.
+
+## 2. Templates
+
+Follow the guidelines presented in the following templates:
+
+- [python](templates/template_class.py)
+- [markdown](templates/template_wiki_page.md)
+
+## 3. Python Docstrings
 
 The project comes with an extension to automatically generate docstrings. It is mandatory to use it if you comment your code.

-## Readability and Maintainability
+## 4. Readability and Maintainability
 
 - **Consistent Formatting:** Code should follow a consistent and readable formatting style. Tools like linters or formatters can help enforce a consistent code style.
   - [linting](./linting.md)
 - **Meaningful Names:** Variable and function names should be descriptive and convey the purpose of the code.
 - **Comments:** Clear and concise comments should be used where necessary to explain complex logic or provide context.
 
-## Code Structure
+## 5. Code Structure
 
 - **Modularity:** Code should be organized into modular components or functions, promoting reusability and maintainability.
 - **Appropriate Use of Functions/Methods:** Functions should have a clear purpose and adhere to the single responsibility principle.
 - **Hierarchy and Nesting:** Avoid overly nested structures; use appropriate levels of indentation to enhance readability.
 
-## Efficiency and Performance
+## 6. Efficiency and Performance
 
 - **Optimized Algorithms:** Code should use efficient algorithms and data structures to achieve good performance.
 - **Avoidance of Code Smells:** Detect and eliminate code smells such as duplicated code, unnecessary complexity, or anti-patterns.
 
-## Error Handling
+## 7. Error Handling
 
 - **Effective Error Messages:** Error messages should be clear and provide useful information for debugging.
 - **Graceful Error Handling:** Code should handle errors gracefully, avoiding crashes and providing appropriate feedback.
 
-## Testing
+## 8. Testing
 
 - **Comprehensive Test Coverage:** Code should be accompanied by a suite of tests that cover different scenarios, ensuring reliability and maintainability.
 - **Test Readability:** Tests should be clear and easy to understand, serving as documentation for the codebase.
 
-## Security
+## 9. Security
 
 - **Input Validation:** Code should validate and sanitize inputs.
 
-## Documentation
+## 10. Documentation
 
 - **Code Comments:** In addition to in-code comments, consider external documentation for the overall project structure, APIs, and configurations.
 - **README Files:** Include a well-written README file that provides an overview of the project, installation instructions, and usage examples.
 
-## Version Control
+## 11. Version Control
 
 - **Commit Messages:** Use descriptive and meaningful commit messages to track changes effectively.
 - **Branching Strategy:** Follow a consistent and well-defined branching strategy to manage code changes.
 
-## Scalability
+## 12. Scalability
 
 - **Avoid Hardcoding:** Parameterize values that might change, making it easier to scale the application.
 - **Optimized Resource Usage:** Ensure efficient utilization of resources to support scalability.
 
-## Consistency with Coding Standards
+## 13. Consistency with Coding Standards
 
 - **Adherence to Coding Guidelines:** Follow established coding standards and best practices for the programming language or framework used.
