~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Python coding style for BuildStream is approximately `pep8 <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/>`_.
-We have a couple of minor exceptions to this standard, we dont want to compromise
-code readability by being overly restrictive on line length for instance.
+The coding style is automatically enforced by `black <https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/>`_.
-The pep8 linter will run automatically when :ref:`running the test suite <contributing_testing>`.
+Formatting will be checked automatically when running the testsuite on CI. For
+details on how to format your code locally, see :ref:`formatting code <contributing_formatting_code>`.
