Modern language guidelines for the age of AI. Opinionated style guides that help both humans and AI assistants write better code.
- Python — Types first, composition over inheritance, feature-based organization
- Go — Interfaces for abstraction, packages for namespacing, errors as values
These guides share common themes:
- Naming over comments — Spend 5x more time on names than comments
- Composition over inheritance — Even in languages that support inheritance
- Feature-based organization — Group by domain, not technical layer
- Parse at boundaries — Accept permissive input, convert to strict types immediately
- Explicit over implicit — Make intent clear through code structure
