 In an effort to encourage clear, clean, uniform and readable code it is useful to have a style guide to establish standards and expectations for code and artifact files.
 
-KUDO is a [Kubernetes (K8S)](https://kubernetes.io/) project written primarily in [Golang](https://golang.org/), both of which have some differences in their style and expectation of code and APIs. In addition the founders of KUDO have some of their own preferences. This guide captures the preferred standards of this project.

+Executing `make lint` uses `goimports` which is configured to ensure this structure and will error in most situations that differ.  Unfortunately not all pattern mismatches are captured.
+
+`make imports` is also a useful tool in order to help create this structure.  If all imports are in 1 import block (no lines of separation), `make imports` will modify the file in the appropriate order and structure.
