policy-general-coding

To enforce consistent coding standards across multiple languages, apply core software engineering principles like SOLID, DRY, and KISS alongside requirements for descriptive naming, type hints, and modular design. This ensures high-quality, maintainable code across your entire team.

The best way to handle error handling and logging is to implement robust, predictable error management combined with structured logging. Validate inputs and use secure defaults to ensure your application fails safely and provides traceable diagnostic information.

SOLID, DRY, and KISS principles improve code maintainability by enforcing single responsibility, avoiding duplication, and favoring simple designs that match problem complexity. This approach resists over-generalization and creates clear, predictable APIs.

Yes, this coding policy requires type hints, docstrings, and clear API documentation. These documentation and type safety guidelines are enforced to improve readability, maintainability, and consistency across the codebase.

Yes, you can use these coding standards for architectural decisions and code reviews. The guidelines cover modular structure, security, and consistent formatting, helping teams guide development workflows and improve overall software maintainability.

You should avoid hardcoding secrets to prevent vulnerabilities, and this policy addresses security by requiring input validation, secure defaults, and keeping secrets out of code. These practices enforce robust, high-quality software engineering standards.
