Naming and Syntax Convention

Here is a small overview on our naming convention. Older code fragments of the repository don't respect it yet.

Type	Format	Example1	Example2
Functions and methods	camelCase	toggleChecked	hasRoleUser
Handlebars.Helpers	camelCase
Messageformat-keys	context.nearerCtxt.shortenedText	profile.group.draftError	course.event.edit.dateStart

HTML Class for event-handlers	"js-" in front and hyphens	class="button-delete js-delete-comment"
HTML ID	camelCase	eventTitle

• Indent using tabs.
• use American English for variable naming and UI-text.
• Use feature-branches: develop new features in dedicated branches.
• Delete code, don't comment it, we have version-control.
• Use descriptive variable-names and explain non-obvious code with comments.
• No TODO/FIXME-comments, make issues instead.
• Don't hesitate to create lot of issues if you see things that should be done or discussed.
