Best Practices

Project Structure

Employing an organized project structure is beneficial to your project and your team.

See the ./Unity/Assets/ folder for more info.

Scope Includes:

• Folder Structure
• Folder Naming
• File Naming

Benefits:

• Consistency — The project structure has consistency in presentation regardless of team location, spoken language, or individual programmers.
• Maintenance — Consistent project structure will aid readability. Readability helps new and existing programmers revisit the code base for fixes and improvements.
• Communication — Developers more implicitly understand each other in written and verbal communication.

Coding Standards

Coding standards define a programming style.

See the ./Unity/.../Templates/ folder for more info.

Employing organized coding standards is beneficial to your project and your team.

Scope Includes:

• Naming Conventions
• File Naming and Organization
• Formatting and Indentation
• Comments and Documentation
• Classes, Functions and Interfaces
• Testing

Benefits:

• Code Integration
• Team Member Integration
• Maintenance
• Uniform Problem Solving
• Minimizes Communication
• Minimizes Performance Pitfalls
• Saves Money Due to Less Man Hours
