Every major open-source project has its own style guide: a set of conventions (sometimes arbitrary) about how to write code for that project. It is much easier to understand a large codebase when all the code in it is in a consistent style. “Style” covers a lot of ground, from “use camelCase for variable names” to “never use global variables” to “never use exceptions.” This project (google/styleguide) links to the style guidelines we use for Google code.

Editorial style guidelines for public-facing Google developer documentation.

Google’s Style Guide is made up of more than 40 sets of “do’s and don’ts” for use within Python and is broken into two key sections - Python Language Rules & Python Style Rules. Broadly speaking the Language Rules are used to define how Google approaches using (and importantly not using) and structuring different elements of the Python language within their code.

October 10, 2025 - Follow the indentation guidelines in the relevant code style guide. For most programming languages, this means using spaces instead of tabs and using two spaces for each indentation level. However, some contexts use four spaces for each indentation level, and some contexts use tabs.

April 2, 2025 - This style guide outlines important standards for tone, content, language, grammar, formatting, punctuation, organization, and image use in documentation.

Either style is acceptable, but prefer consistency with existing code. Within each section the includes should be ordered alphabetically. Note that older code might not conform to this rule and should be fixed when convenient. For example, the includes in google-awesome-project/src/foo/internal/fooserver.cc might look like this:

A Java source file is described as being in Google Style if and only if it adheres to the rules herein. Like other programming style guides, the issues covered span not only aesthetic issues of formatting, but other types of conventions or coding standards as well.

November 22, 2022 - A: The style documentation is deliberately split into three parts. We advise Go programmers at Google to take the core Style Guide text seriously, and pick up more specific points as they go through the readability program.

Google Styleguide is a comprehensive collection of coding style guides created and maintained by Google to ensure consistency, readability, and maintainability across its vast array of software projects.
