Obscuring code by hiding it with techniques or systems similar to p,a,c,k,e,r's obfuscate feature, uglify's mangle, or unclear naming conventions such as $z12sdf813d, is not permitted in the directory. Making code non-human readable forces future developers to face an unnecessary hurdle, as well as being a common vector for hidden, malicious code.
We require developers to provide public, maintained access to their source code and any build tools in one of the following ways:
- Include the source code in the deployed plugin
- A link in the readme to the development location
We strongly recommend you document how any development tools are to be used.
