# SonarQube for IDE: Visual Studio Code (formerly SonarLint)

SonarQube for IDE by [Sonar](https://www.sonarsource.com/) is a free, sophisticated static analysis tool that enhances your code quality and security. Analyze your code early—as you write or generate it. Local analysis automatically identifies quality and security issues in real-time, even with AI-generated code. Fix issues found using QuickFix or the AI CodeFix feature, before pushing to your SCM. This ensures your code meets your quality standards and is safe for running in production.

Understand the "why" behind issues with detailed contextual information, turning SonarQube for IDE into your personal coding tutor, and levelling up your coding skills.

Connect to [SonarQube Server](https://www.sonarsource.com/products/sonarqube/) or [SonarQube Cloud](https://www.sonarsource.com/products/sonarcloud/) (you can create a [free SonarQube Cloud account](https://www.sonarsource.com/products/sonarcloud/signup/) to get started), to create a powerful, unified code quality platform for your team, throughout the software development lifecycle. [This connection](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-for-vs-code/connect-your-ide/connected-mode/) enables sharing of consistent language rulesets and project settings, and unlocks analysis of deeply hidden security issues, fostering collaboration and code uniformity. Additionally, Connected Mode unlocks analysis of languages such as COBOL, Apex, PL/SQL, T-SQL, Ansible, Shell, and Azure Pipelines.

SonarQube for IDE is the only extension you need in VS Code for ensuring both code quality and security. It supports a wide range of languages, including C, C++, Java, Go, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, C#, HTML, CSS, PHP, Kubernetes, Docker and PL/SQL. Refer to our documentation for the complete list of supported languages, rules, and secret detection capabilities.
