It's a systematic process where several developers assess changes to make sure the code is reliable, clear, and follows the project's standards. --- ### Main goals 1. **Improving code quality** Logic correctness, architecture, readability, security, and performance are checked. Mistakes are caught before they reach production. 2. **Shared standards** Code review helps develop a common style, approach, and design principles. The team writes code in the same way, which makes it easier to maintain. 3. **Knowledge sharing** Developers see their colleagues' solutions, learn new things, and understand different parts of the system better. 4. **Reduced risk** If one developer leaves, others are already familiar with their code, so the project doesn't stall. 5. **Collective responsibility** After review, the code becomes "shared" - no one works in isolation, and product quality becomes a team responsibility. --- ### Conclusion The purpose of code review is to **improve the product, not to point out mistakes**. It's a way to build a culture of openness, learning, and quality, where every commit passes a "reliability filter" before reaching the main branch.For the reviewerNote to the moderator (optional)Visible only to the moderator.
