Code Standards¶

If everyone uses the same coding style, it is much easier to read code that someone else wrote. That said, style is not important enough to enforce during a code review. It is much more important to ensure that best practices are followed such as implementing error handling .

PHP¶

This one is a bit old, but lots of good stuff that goes beyond style. Some things are questionable. I prefer Getters/Setters over Attributes as Objects (at least how the example shows it) to allow for better error handling. I prefer no underscores in naming except for constants that use all caps...but that is only a style issue.
