As far as I know there are these;
- Camel case = coolFileName
- Snake case = cool_file_name
- Kebab case = cool-file-name
- Pascal case = CoolFileName
- Dot notation = cool.file.name
- Flat case = coolfilename
- Screaming case = COOLFILENAME
Personally I prefer the kebab/dot conventions simply because they allow for easy “navigation” with (ctrl+arrow keys) between each part. What are your preferences when it comes to this? Did I miss any schemes?
I like Camel Case for code, but mostly because it’s ingrained in my brain, coming from Java as my first language.
For folders and files, I like Kebab Case.
Luckily, I was not ingrained by my first programming language like that, or my coworkers would strangle me.
I started with BASIC, which allowed only two letters for variable names…
