Tool

Definitions

1. Any standalone program or utility used during the software development lifecycle — compilers, linters, debuggers, profilers, package managers, and build systems are all developer tools.

   In plain English: A program that helps developers build, test, or manage their software.

   Example: "We added three new tools to the CI pipeline: a license checker, a secrets scanner, and a SBOM generator."
