Fortran Tooling

Welcome to Fortran tooling documentation

Motivation

Our motivations for this project
- We work on large legacy projects which do not utilise software tool (testing, docs, etc).
- We want to increase adoption of these tools and make it easier to do so.
  - We believe this will make it easier for new joiners to start working on a legacy Fortran project
- We want to help choose which tools are appropriate (do not need to throw out existing tools if they are already well established)
- Up-skill Fortran developers on available tools and how to follow best practices.
  - This will be done in the form of a course developed by ourselves
What we will do to achieve this
- Provide guidance on how to work on legacy fortran projects
  - Which tools to choose from and how to use them
  - Why you would choose between tool a and tool b
  - Provide working examples of the tools we recommend
How we have provided examples (Current README.md)
- Description of src code (how to run, build, test, build docs, etc)
- Navigating subfolders
