  • scan-build

    Clang's scan-build re-implementation in python

  • I've had some success with a custom shell script/makefile project, using compilation database and intercept-build:

  • compiledb

    Tool for generating Clang's JSON Compilation Database files for make-based build systems.

  • If you can get compiledb to work with your make project and generate the correct file, it should be able to figure out project quite well

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
