+## Git Hooks with Husky.Net
+
+This repository uses [Husky.Net](https://alirezanet.github.io/Husky.Net/) to automatically format and validate code before commits and pushes.
+
+### What Gets Checked
+
+**Pre-commit hooks** (run on staged files):
+- **prettier** - Formats TypeScript, JavaScript, CSS, and JSON files in `src/Elastic.Documentation.Site/`
+- **typescript-check** - Type checks TypeScript files with `tsc --noEmit` (only if TS files are staged)
+- **eslint** - Lints and fixes JavaScript/TypeScript files
+
+**Pre-push hooks** (run on files being pushed):
+- **dotnet-lint** - Lints C# and F# files using `./build.sh lint` (runs `dotnet format --verify-no-changes`)
+
+### Installation
+
+Husky.Net is included as a dotnet tool. After cloning the repository, restore the tools:
+
+```bash
+dotnet tool restore
+```
+
+Then install the git hooks:
+
+```bash
+dotnet husky install
+```
+
+That's it! The hooks will now run automatically on every commit and push.
+
+### Usage
+
+Once installed, hooks run automatically when you commit or push:
+
+```bash
+git add .
+git commit -m "your message"  # Pre-commit hooks run here
+git push                       # Pre-push hooks run here
+```
+
+**Note:** If hooks modify files (prettier, eslint), the commit will fail so you can review the changes. Simply stage the changes and commit again:
+
+```bash
+git add -u
+git commit -m "your message"
+```
+
+If the **dotnet-lint** hook fails during push, you need to fix the linting errors and commit the fixes before pushing again.
+
+### Manual Execution
+
+You can test hooks without committing or pushing:
+
+```bash
+# Run all pre-commit tasks
+dotnet husky run --group pre-commit
+
+# Run all pre-push tasks
+dotnet husky run --group pre-push
+
+# Test individual tasks
+dotnet husky run --name prettier
+dotnet husky run --name typescript-check
+dotnet husky run --name eslint
+dotnet husky run --name dotnet-lint
+```
+
+### Configuration
+
+Hook configuration is defined in `.husky/task-runner.json`. See the [Husky.Net documentation](https://alirezanet.github.io/Husky.Net/guide/task-runner.html) for more details.
