Coder checks your Drupal code against coding standards and other best practices. It can also fix coding standard violations for you with the phpcbf command from PHP_CodeSniffer, see the installation instructions and usage examples. Those checks apply to all versions of Drupal, so you can use Coder 8.3.x to check Drupal 7 code.

Coder is not a module, it is used as command line tool and in IDEs.

Note that Javascript support has been removed. To check and fix Javascript files please use ESLint and see the Drupal ESLint documentation.
