2. LOW HANGING FRUITS
3. Resource  Example extension EXT:my_skeleton  https://github.com/IchHabRecht/my_skeleton
4. ENSURE COMPATIBILITY
5. What  Continuous Integration Service

7. Examples  Bamboo  Gitlab CI  Jenkins  Travis CI
8. Showcase  Travis CI  https://travis-ci.org  Run PHP linter for multiple versions  Extend the setup executing unit and functional tests  Release new versions automatically to TER
9. UNIFY CODE STYLE
10. What  Coding Standards Fixer
