Now that we will be working on large, long running projects with multiple developers, it is essential that we all work in a unified way in order to:
- Write maintainable code
- Keep code transparent and readable
- Keep code/projects scalable
No matter the project, we must always try and keep a common formatting. This means consistent commenting, consistent syntax and consistent naming.
If you find yourself coding frequently in a language not listed or one with insufficient guidelines, please write up a proposal following industry standard best practices (include personal preferences only if the practices are ambiguous or still being developed) and submit a pull request.
Limit your markdown files to a maximum 80 character width where possible. Exceptions may be made for URLs. There’s nothing we can do about those.
