Migration Overview

Qlty is the next generation of Code Climate Quality.

Created in 2011, Code Climate Quality was a pioneer for automated code review, helping developers merge with confidence by bringing maintainability and code coverage metrics into the developer workflow. Now, building on our years of experience with Quality, we’ve decided to reinvest in the product — rebuilding the product from the ground up.

Reflecting our renewed focus on code health, we’ve branched out Qlty into its own new company, Qlty Software. We’re now launching a brand new edition of Quality, available as Qlty Cloud and Qlty CLI.

For users of Code Climate Quality, you’ll notice some meaningful improvements:

Qlty CLI: The brand new Qlty CLI is designed to provide faster feedback loops by enabling configuration and analysis to be run locally.
Expanded Language Support: Qlty Cloud supports a broader range of languages, frameworks, and technologies, ensuring that your tools evolve alongside modern development trends.
Security Scanning: Qlty Cloud includes built-in security scanning for code vulnerabilities, providing integrated checks for SAST, IaC, and SCA—critical for identifying and addressing security risks earlier in your development process.
Enhanced Code Coverage Support: With improvements to coverage reporting, including diff coverage highlighting directly within the Qlty UI, you can manage coverage more effectively without needing a browser extension.
Improved Monorepo Support: Qlty offers better handling of monorepos, making it simpler to work across multiple repositories without the complexity traditionally associated with these setups.
Modernized Plugin Architecture: The new plugin system allows for greater flexibility and faster plugin integration, making it easier to extend Qlty Cloud with the tools your team needs.

Qlty Cloud represents the future of Code Climate Quality. We’re now analyzing your existing projects with Qlty Cloud, and we’re excited to see what you think.
