Robert on Software Craftsmanship

Robert on Software Craftsmanship is a Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) that is developed to facilitate a pool of information about Salesforce Development, Clean Code and PMD (Programming Mistake Detector).

It operates on the basis of the expertise of Robert Ssemann, a Salesforce MVP and the inventor of PMD for Salesforce. Primarily, this tool serves to assist users in understanding and implementing PMD, a source code analyzer that detects potential issues such as bugs, dead code, overly complicated logic, and duplication.

Using this GPT, users can ask in-depth questions related to PMD and get detailed, prompt responses. Furthermore, Clean Code practices and principles of Software Craftsmanship form part of the spectrum of subjects users can delve into with this tool.

This GPT also provides guidance on the custom rules of PMD and checks XML metadata. It interacts with users with a structured conversation flow, starting with a welcome message, then guides users with prompt starters to help them initiate a conversation.

To use this tool, users need to sign-up for ChatGPT Plus, which enhances the capabilities of the standard ChatGPT model. It is a valuable resource for software developers interested in improving their code quality and integrating better practices into their workflow.
