The Alibaba Java Coding Guidelines (AJCG) is a Gitbook document consolidating Alibaba's Java programming best practices, covering programming specification, exceptions and logs, MySQL rules, project structure, and security. Each rule is classified as Mandatory, Recommended, or Reference, with positive and counter examples.

Use cases

• learn java coding standards
• improve java code quality in my team
• find best practices for java naming and formatting
• mysql schema and index design guidelines
• java security coding checklist
• establish code review standards for java projects

When to choose

• you want a battle-tested, widely adopted Java style and quality guide
• you need rules graded by severity with concrete examples
• your team works with Java and MySQL and wants shared conventions

When to avoid

• you need an executable linter rather than a document (use P3C/PMD plugins)
• you want language-agnostic style rules
• you need guidelines for languages other than Java
