You will always need guidelines whichever you choose if you work in a team, specially in larger teams. It helps understanding the code, and gives hints to your approach to the problem. It can even gives indication to bugs, like you try to set a value that is treated in other parts of the code as a constant, or try to call a function that is set up to be used as a constructor. So it doesn't matter what kind of guidelines you use, but use a really detailed one. You can even modify it to some degree to make it fit your team's development style (like switch camelCase to something else, or use Hungarian notation or whatever your team prefers), just stick to it, and it will help in the rest of the development process. -- Poetro -- To view archived discussions from the original JSMentors Mailman list: http://www.mail-archive.com/jsmentors@jsmentors.com/ To search via a non-Google archive, visit here: http://www.mail-archive.com/jsmentors@googlegroups.com/ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to jsmentors+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com
