Applies the Snyk documentation writing-style rules across the Developer tools section (297 files).

Part of the per-section writing-style review. Targets the shared base branch writing-style-review.

Consistent changes

  • Passive to active voice; present tense over future "will"
  • Capability phrasing: "allows/enables you to" to "lets you"; "is able to" to "can"
  • once to after; in order to to "to"; via to through/using; make sure to ensure; go to to navigate to; removed filler (just, simply, easily, currently)
  • Bold UI labels without element-type nouns; check box "select/clear"
  • Casing: Node.js, GitHub, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, IaC, AI-BOM; Snyk Web UI; Projects/Organizations/Groups; removed AI buzzwords
  • Fixed copy-paste/product-name slips and obvious prose typos

Preserved

Frontmatter, GitBook/OpenAPI components, code/CLI, links/URLs, image paths, and technical literals are unchanged. Auto-generated API reference pages and shared v1-deprecation boilerplate left intact. SUMMARY.md (navigation) not touched.
