+## File Structure
+
+- Header Files (.h):
+  - Include declarations of classes, functions, constants, and macros.
+  - Use include guards or #pragma once to prevent multiple inclusions.
+- Source Files (.cpp):
+  - Contain the implementation of functions and classes.
+
+## Naming Conventions
+- Variables: camelCase (e.g., int studentAge;)
+- Functions: camelCase (e.g., void calculateSum();)
+- Classes: PascalCase (e.g., class UserAccount {};)
+- Constants: ALL_CAPS_SNAKE_CASE (e.g., const int MAX_SIZE = 100;)
+- Namespaces: lowercase (e.g., namespace utils {})
+
+## Indentation and Spacing
+- Use tabs with a size equivalent to 4 spaces for indentation.
+- Place one space before and after binary operators (e.g., a + b).
+- Use a single blank line between function definitions and logical blocks.
+
+## Comments
+Use // for single-line comments and /* ... */ for multi-line comments. \
+Always explain why a decision was made, not what the code does.
+- Example:
+```cpp
+// Adjusting balance to account for monthly interest
+balance += interest;
+```
+
+## Function Design
+Keep functions small and focused on a single task. \
+Use descriptive names for function parameters.
+- Example:
+```cpp
+double calculateArea(double radius) {
+    return 3.14159 * radius * radius;
+}
+```
+## Error Handling
+Use exceptions for error handling, and always catch exceptions where needed.
+- Example:
+```cpp
+try {
+    openFile("data.txt");
+} catch (const std::exception& e) {
+    std::cerr << "Error: " << e.what() << std::endl;
+}
+```
+## Smart Pointers
+Prefer smart pointers (std::unique_ptr, std::shared_ptr) over raw pointers for better memory management.
+- Example:
+```cpp
+std::unique_ptr<int> ptr = std::make_unique<int>(10);
+```
+## Standard Library
+Use the STL (e.g., std::vector, std::map) instead of manual memory management or arrays when appropriate.
+
+## Include Statements
+Use angled brackets (< >) for standard libraries and quotes (" ") for project-specific files. \
+Group and order includes logically:
+- Standard headers
+- Third-party libraries
+- Project-specific headers
+
+## Code Formatting
+Use a consistent style for braces:
+```cpp
+void example() {
+    if (true) {
+	    // Code block
+    }
+}
+```
