#snakecase — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #snakecase, aggregated by home.social.

  1. @padeluun Weil ich dazu neulich irgendwo hier den Fachbegriff lernte, wollte ich ihn mal neunmalklug droppen: Also nicht #snakecase und auch nicht #camelCase, sondern #PascalCase
    (Sorry, wisst ihr sicher alle schon, aber ich hab mich drüber gefreut)

  2. #TIL that #SnakeCase is a less frequently used tagging scheme on the #fediverse.

    This could be due to that some services break their internal tagging schema, e.g. #Minds doesn't work well with #KebabCase.

    Or it could be due to the laziness of the users and subjectively arguing that #snake_case doesn't add to the readability of #PascalCase or #camelCase tags.

    In return the argument is that snake_case can add value if the tag has a not obvious word break, especially if the tag is completely written in lowercase or UPPERCASE.

    Or if the the underscore replaces a different character other than space like slash, pipe, hyphen, etc.

    And in AReallyLongTag / a_really_long_tag it could aid readability.

    Thus if one wants grouping and discoverability of posts while creating a brand identity consider using snake_case tags.

  5. There's #CamelCase, and there's #SnakeCase. But what about making a semantic distinction by convention between camel case and snake case, like using snake case for value-y types and functions and camel case for reference-y types and procedures? How cursed is this?

    The case of a variable name `Num_sequences` is a firing offence, to start with... 😜

    #snake_case can work but will be treated differently from #snakeCase because it's a different #. I think. Let's see!
