Programming Case Format Reference

🐍 snake_case

Uses lowercase letters with underscores as separators. Widely used in Python, Ruby, and database naming conventions. Highly readable and consistent across different programming contexts.

Examples: user_name, calculate_total_price, api_response_handler
Best for: Python variables, Ruby methods, database columns, configuration keys

🐪 camelCase

Starts with lowercase, capitalizes subsequent words. Standard in JavaScript, Java, and many object-oriented languages. Compact and widely recognized in modern programming.

Examples: userName, calculateTotalPrice, apiResponseHandler
Best for: JavaScript variables, Java methods, C# properties, TypeScript functions

🏛️ PascalCase

Capitalizes the first letter of each word, including the first word. Used for classes, types, interfaces, and components across multiple programming languages.

Examples: UserName, CalculateTotalPrice, ApiResponseHandler
Best for: Class names, interface definitions, React components, type definitions

🔗 kebab-case

Uses lowercase letters with hyphens as separators. Common in web development for URLs, CSS classes, HTML attributes, and file naming conventions.

Examples: user-name, calculate-total-price, api-response-handler
Best for: CSS classes, URL slugs, HTML attributes, file names, command-line flags

Language-Specific Naming Conventions

🐍

Python

  • • Variables: snake_case
  • • Functions: snake_case
  • • Classes: PascalCase
  • • Constants: UPPER_SNAKE_CASE
  • • Modules: snake_case
☕

Java

  • • Variables: camelCase
  • • Methods: camelCase
  • • Classes: PascalCase
  • • Constants: UPPER_SNAKE_CASE
  • • Packages: lowercase
⚡

JavaScript

  • • Variables: camelCase
  • • Functions: camelCase
  • • Classes: PascalCase
  • • Constants: UPPER_SNAKE_CASE
  • • Files: kebab-case or camelCase

Development Best Practices and Team Standards

✅ Best Practices

  • • Follow language-specific conventions consistently
  • • Use descriptive names that explain purpose
  • • Maintain consistency across entire codebase
  • • Document naming conventions in team style guides
  • • Use linting tools to enforce naming standards
  • • Consider context and scope when naming
  • • Avoid abbreviations unless widely understood

❌ Common Pitfalls

  • • Mixing different case conventions in same project
  • • Using unclear abbreviations or single letters
  • • Ignoring language-specific naming guidelines
  • • Inconsistent naming across team members
  • • Using reserved keywords as identifiers
  • • Overly long names that reduce readability
  • • Case sensitivity issues in cross-platform code

How Coding Case Converter Works

This tool analyzes input text and converts it to the selected programming case format by processing word boundaries, removing special characters, and applying the appropriate capitalization and separator rules for each case type. It handles complex text inputs and maintains semantic meaning while ensuring compliance with programming conventions.
