Brian Gianforcaro f0bf723424 Meta: Enable CodeQL static analysis for Serenity
CodeQL is a static analysis technology that was purchased by GitHub
and has been tightly integrated into the platform. It's different
from most other static analysis solutions because it's based on a
database built from your codebase, and then language specific rules
can be executed against that database. The rules are fully user
extensible, and are written in a datalog/query language.

The default cpp language rules coming from CodeQL will probably find
some issues, the ability to easily write custom rules/queries will
lend it self nicely to allowing us to validate Serenity specific
semantics are followed throughout the code.

SerenityOS

Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.

Build status

About

SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.

Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like.

I (Andreas) regularly post raw hacking sessions and demos on my YouTube channel.

Sometimes I write about the system on my github.io blog.

I'm also on Patreon and GitHub Sponsors if you would like to show some support that way.
