Whats your go-to naming convention?

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?

  • Snake case. I find it the easiest to read.

    • I'm starting to warm up to Pokemon case, which would simplify functions like

      • GottaCatchThemAll() to 🍚()

      or

      • this to ⚡đŸčIchooseU

      which I think we can all agree is much easier to read
