\section Naming Conventions
alpar@507
     6
alpar@667
     7
In order to make development easier we have made some conventions
alpar@667
     8
according to coding style. These include names of types, classes,
alpar@667
     9
functions, variables, constants and exceptions. If these conventions
alpar@667
    10
are met in one's code then it is easier to read and maintain
alpar@667
    11
it. Please comply with these conventions if you want to contribute
alpar@667
    12
developing Hugo library.
