+# SingOs Coding Practice
+*Version 1 -- A first draft at formalizing a common coding practice for SingOS Development*
+
+
+## On naming
+
+We encourage long but descriptive identifier names like,
+
+    token_string_to_id_map
+
+as opposed to,
+    
+    tok_map (BAD)
+
+`(Yes, it's a made up example)`.
+
+Short names like 'i' and 'j' may be
+used for super obvious iteration indexes only,
+otherwise, if the body of the loop is big,
+we still prefer something more explicit like:
+
+    token_index
+
+## On casing
+
+We use snake-case for all identifiers consisting of multiple words;
+this means that words are underscore seperated.
+
+For variable and procedure names, every letter is lowercase:
+
+    our_very_important_variable
+    our_very_important_procedure
+
+For all typenames (`structs`, `enums`, `unions`, etc.),
+every word begins with a capitalized letter:
+
+    Our_Very_Important_Type
+
+(An exception is made for primitive types like `int`, `float`, `double`, etc).
+
+For value constants (`#defines`), every letter is uppercase (all-caps):
+
+    OUR_VERY_IMPORTANT_CONSTANT
+
+Macros acting like procedures should be capitalized like procedures,
+but with parameter names in all-caps:
+
+    our_very_important_macro(PARAMETER, OTHER_PARAMETER)
+
+## On indentation
+
+We use 4 spaces per indent, at least in C-style languages. (^:
+
+## On brace-placement
+
+What do we prefer?
+This:
+
+    if (something)
+    {
+        do_stuff();
+    }
+    else
+    {
+        this_other_thing();
+    }
+
+Or this:
+
+    if (something) {
+        do_stuff();
+    }
+    else {
+        this_other_thing();
+    }
+
+## On return statements
+
+We prefer an explicit else case even though a return was found in an above branch:
+
+    if (some_condition)
+    {
+        return "Olga";
+    }
+    else
+    {
+        return "Finn";
+    }
+
+As opposed to:
+    
+    (BAD)
+    
+    if (some_condition)
+    {
+        return "Olga";
+    }
+    
+    return "Finn";
+    
+    (BAD)
