+# Cadl Language Style Guide
+
+This is a guide providing a recommended set of naming convention to use when writing a Cadl spec.
+
+:::info
+The guidelines in this article are used in Cadl Core libraries. You can use them, or adapt them to your needs. The primary objectives are consistency and readability within your project, team, organization, or company source code.

+
+## Naming convention
+
+| Type             | Naming                                       | Example                                          |
+| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
+| scalar           | camelCase                                    | `scalar uuid extends string;`                    |
+| model            | PascalCase                                   | `model Pet {}`                                   |
+| model property   | camelCase                                    | `model Pet {furColor: string}`                   |
+| enum             | PascalCase                                   | `model Pet {furColor: string}`                   |
+| enum member      | camelCase                                    | `enum Direction {up, down}`                      |
+| namespace        | PascalCase                                   | `namespace Org.PetStore`                         |
+| interface        | PascalCase                                   | `interface Stores {}`                            |
+| operation        | camelCase                                    | `op listPets(): Pet[];`                          |
+| operation params | camelCase                                    | `op getPet(petId: string): Pet;`                 |
+| unions           | PascalCase                                   | `union Pet {cat: Cat, dog: Dog}`                 |
+| unions variants  | camelCase                                    | `union Pet {cat: Cat, dog: Dog}`                 |
+| alias            | camelCase or PascalCase depending on context | `alias myString = string` or `alias MyPet = Pet` |
+| decorators       | camelCase                                    | `@format`, `@resourceCollection`                 |
+| functions        | camelCase                                    | `addedAfter`                                     |
+| file name        | kebab-case                                   | `my-lib.cadl`                                    |

+## Layout convention
+
+Cadl has a built-in formatter. See [formatter section](./formatter.md) for more information on how to use it.
+
+- Use 2 space indenting
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore -->
+```cadl
+// bad
+model Pet {
+    name: string;
+}
+
+// good
+model Pet {
+  name: string;
+}
+```
+
+- Place a space before an opening curly brace
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore -->
+```cadl
+// bad
+model Pet{
+  name: string;
+}
+
+// good
+model Pet {
+  name: string;
+}
+```
+
+- Block opening curly brace `{` should be on the same line
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore -->
+```cadl
+// bad
+model Pet 
+{
+  name: string;
+}
+
+// good
+model Pet {
+  name: string;
+}
+```
+
+- Add a newline after blocks
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore -->
+```cadl
+// bad
+model Pet {
+  name: string;
+}
+model Cat extends Pet {}
+
+// good
+model Pet {
+  name: string;
+}
+
+model Cat extends Pet {}
+```
+
+- Place no space between an operation/decorator/function name and the parmaeter list
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore -->
+```cadl
+// bad
+op list (filter: string): Pet[];
+
+// bad
+@doc ("This is a pet")
+
+// good
+op list(filter: string): Pet[];
+
+// good
+@doc("This is a pet")
+```
+
+- Do not add spaces inside parentheses
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore -->
+```cadl
+// bad
+op list( filter: string ): Pet[];
+
+// good
+op list(filter: string): Pet[];
+
+```
+
+- Add spaces inside curly braces.
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore -->
+```cadl
+// bad
+alias foo = {type: "cat"};
+
+// good
+alias foo = { type: "cat" };
+```
+
+- Do not add space inside square brackets
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore -->
+```cadl
+// bad
+alias foo = [ 1, 2, 3 ];
+
+// good
+alias foo = [1, 2, 3];
+```
+
+- Start all comments with a space
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore -->
+```cadl
+//bad
+
+// good
+```
+
+- Avoid trailing spaces at the end of lines.
