Naming Convention

[](#naming-convention)

### Case

[](#case)

- **Database tables & columns** are snake\_case but property names are **camelCase**.
- **Class names** must be declared in **PascalCase**.
- **Class constants** must be declared in all **upper case with underscore separators**.
- **Method names** must be declared in **camelCase**
- **Property names and function arguments** have generally not a specific rule, but must be written according to the package. The only rule is: always use the same. I would suggest **camelCase**.
- **Function names** are **camelCase**. (however the Official PHP coding standards advices snake\_case).
- **Variables names** I would suggest **camelCase**

### Plural / Singular

[](#plural--singular)

- **Plural** to be declare in database tables, views directory, routes name
- **Singular** to be declare in model & controller class name
