+Black
+=====
+
+`Black <https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/>`__ is a opinionated python code formatter.
+
+
+Run Locally
+-----------
+
+The mozlint integration of black can be run using mach:
+
+.. parsed-literal::
+
+ $ mach lint --linter black <file paths>
+
+Alternatively, omit the ``--linter black`` and run all configured linters, which will include
+black.
+
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+To enable black on new directory, add the path to the include
+section in the `black.yml <https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/tools/lint/black.yml>`_ file.
+
+Autofix
+-------
+
+The black linter provides a ``--fix`` option.
