Function & Classes Naming Convention
Function naming convention
Function's names are formatted in camelCase notation. It’s a best practice to include the verb as a prefix in the function name that tells the purpose of the function.
In JavaScript function is just like a procedure or collection statements of calculating a value or perform a task. We will learn about the functions in detail in the later sections.
// Descriptive name of function function getName(firstName, lastName) { return `${firstName} ${lastName}`; } const myName = getName('Bob','William'); console.log(myName);
Classes naming convention:
Class is declared with a PascalCase. Class is like a template for creating objects. They encapsulate data with code to work on that data. We will study the classes in detail in later sections.
class WebDeveloper { constructor(firstName, lastName) { this.firstName = firstName; this.lastName = lastName; } } const robinWieruch = new WebDeveloper('Robin', 'Wieruch'); console.log(robinWieruch);
Note:
Classes are very advanced topics and will be covered later, so no exercises for this topic for now.
Summary:
Naming convention purpose logic in your code. It is the standard in the JS community.
Variables are case-sensitive.
Constants are written in UPPERCASE (capital letters).
Prefixes are added in the booleans for clarity.
Functions names are formatted in camelCase notation.
Class is declared with a PascalCase.
