In this chapter, we have discussed the most common and widely accepted coding conventions. We started with the official Python style guide (the PEP 8 document). The official style guide was complemented by some naming suggestions that will make your future code more explicit. We have also seen some useful tools that are indispensable in maintaining the consistency and quality of your code.
All of this prepares us for the first practical topic of the book—writing and distributing your own packages. In the next chapter, we will learn how to publish our very own package on a public PyPI repository and also how to leverage the power of packaging ecosystems in your private organization.
