A language-agnostic cheatsheet of guidelines for naming variables and functions, home of the A/HC/LC (Action/High Context/Low Context) pattern. It covers conventions like S-I-D (short, intuitive, descriptive), avoiding contractions and context duplication, with JavaScript examples.

Use cases

  • improve variable naming in my code
  • learn how to name functions consistently
  • find a naming convention guide for my team
  • understand the A/HC/LC naming pattern
  • stop using bad abbreviations in code
  • teach junior developers naming best practices

When to choose

  • you want concise, practical naming guidelines applicable to any programming language
  • you are writing style guides or onboarding documentation for a team
  • you struggle with naming variables, functions, or prefixes

When to avoid

  • you need automated naming enforcement or linting rules rather than guidelines
  • you need language-specific official style guides (e.g., PEP 8, Google Java Style)
  • you need a tool that renames code automatically
