## Code style
The code is formatted using clang format in Qt Creator. [.clang-format](https://github.com/Chatterino/chatterino2/blob/master/.clang-format) contains the style file for clang format.

### Get it automated with QT Creator + Beautifier + Clang Format
1. Download LLVM: http://releases.llvm.org/6.0.1/LLVM-6.0.1-win64.exe
2. During the installation, make sure to add it to your path
3. In QT Creator, select `Help` > `About Plugins` > `C++` > `Beautifier` to enable the plugin
4. Restart QT Creator
5. Select `Tools` > `Options` > `Beautifier`
6. Under `General` select `Tool: ClangFormat` and enable `Automatic Formatting on File Save`
7. Under `Clang Format` select `Use predefined style: File` and `Fallback style: None`

Qt creator should now format the documents when saving it.
