Download Guide

The downloads section of a Checkstyle Addons release contains quite a number of files. GitHub does not support setting descriptions for them, so we put the descriptions here. Also, GitHub does not allow .jar extensions, so we had to rename them all to .zip. Remember to rename them back to .jar after download.

The most important factor is the Checkstyle version that you use:

• Checkstyle ≥ 10.0
• Checkstyle 8.21 - 9.3
• Checkstyle 7.0 - 8.20
• Checkstyle 6.16.1 -  6.19

Find detailed descriptions on how to set things up on the Get Started page.
