# Chromium coding style
## Main style guides
* [Chromium C++ style guide](c++/c++.md)
* [Google Objective-C style guide](https://google.github.io/styleguide/objcguide.xml)
* [Java style guide for Android](https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/developers/coding-style/java)
* [GN style guide](../tools/gn/docs/style_guide.md) for build files
Chromium also uses these languages to a lesser degree:
* [Kernel C style](https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/CodingStyle?id=refs/heads/master) for ChromiumOS firmware.
* [IDL](https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/blink/webidl#TOC-Style)
* [Jinja style guide](https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/developers/jinja#TOC-Style) for [Jinja](https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/developers/jinja) templates.
## Python
Python code should follow [PEP-8](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/).
Some existing scripts were originally written following Google's internal
style guideline and have the following two exceptions. New scripts should,
however, be PEP-8 compliant.
* Use two-space indentation instead of four-space indentation.
* Use `CamelCase()` method and function names instead of `unix_hacker_style()` names.
[Depot tools](http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chrome-infra-docs/flat/depot_tools/docs/html/depot_tools.html)
contains a local copy of pylint, appropriately configured.
Note that asserts are of limited use, and should not be used for validating
input – throw an exception instead. Asserts can be used for validating program
logic, especially use of interfaces or invariants (e.g., asserting that a
function is only called with dictionaries that contain a certain key). [See
Using Assertions
Effectively](https://wiki.python.org/moin/UsingAssertionsEffectively).
See also the [Chromium OS Python Style
Guidelines](https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/chromium-os/python-style-guidelines).
## Web languages (JavaScript, HTML, CSS)
When working on Web-based UI features, consult the [Web Development Style Guide](https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/developers/web-development-style-guide) for the Chromium conventions used in JS/CSS/HTML files.
Internal uses of web languages, notably "layout" tests, should preferably follow these style guides, but it is not enforced.
