Naming Conventions

WARNING

These examples are the recommended style, not mandatory.

Jule uses camelCase and PascalCase, with some exceptions.

Choose camelCase or PascalCase based on public status: use PascalCase for exportable definitions; otherwise, use camelCase.

Use camelCase for local variables. If your local variable is a constant, prefer PascalCase.

There may be some exceptions where you may use a different case, like SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE. For example, your API is based on or inspired by an existing API. Such as O_RDWR and O_CREAT flags of POSIX.

Packages

Packages should use lowercase with no space.
