An open-source book, 'Zen and the Art of the Objective-C Craftsmanship', offering guidelines and best practices for writing clean Objective-C code. It covers topics like naming conventions, conditionals, class design, and code organization.

Use cases

• learn objective-c best practices
• improve objective-c code style
• objective-c naming conventions guide
• write cleaner objective-c code
• objective-c code organization tips
• understand objective-c design patterns

When to choose

• you maintain or write Objective-C code and want a community-vetted style guide
• you are onboarding developers to an existing Objective-C codebase
• you want readable, opinionated guidance on idiomatic Objective-C patterns

When to avoid

• your project is Swift-only, since the book's focus is Objective-C
• you need executable linting or automated enforcement rather than prose guidelines
• you need actively updated content, as the book is largely finished and rarely revised
