+- We follow [PEP 8](https://peps.python.org/pep-0008/) as enforced by [Ruff](https://ruff.rs/) with a line length of 79 characters.
   As long as you run our full [*tox*] suite before committing, or install our [*pre-commit*] hooks (ideally you'll do both – see [*Local Development Environment*](#local-development-environment) above), you won't have to spend any time on formatting your code at all.
   If you don't, [CI] will catch it for you – but that seems like a waste of your time!
