Strong Build System

WhisperSwift reaches Level 2 with 45% Build System pass rate. Currently building team readiness with 15/55 criteria passing (27%). Key areas for improvement include the opportunities listed below.

Strengths

01
Large File Detection
.gitignore includes *.bin and *.log patterns to prevent large binary files from being committed.
02
Strict Typing
Swift enforces strict typing by default through its type system and compiler.
03
Type Check
Swift is strongly typed by default with compiler-enforced type checking (SWIFT_VERSION = 5.0).

Opportunities

01
Cyclomatic Complexity
Add complexity analysis to identify and refactor overly complex functions.
02
Feature Flag Infrastructure
Add feature flags to enable safer deployments and gradual rollouts.
03
Integration Tests Exist
Add integration tests to verify component interactions and catch issues unit tests miss.
