This article will show examples of good comments vs. bad comments, and how you can improve your code readability by following a few key principles. In our previous blog posts on code readability, we showed how to enhance code readability by using spacing and meaningful naming without adding comments. No comment yet.

How things should be named in your code. The primary goal of these naming conventions is to create highly readable code. Concerns related to brevity are superseded by clarity and maintainability. These naming standards are also specific to Claris/FileMaker Pro Client development.

FileMaker Naming Conventions and Standards are especially important in a team environment.
Make your applications easier to maintain and developer friendly.

It might sound trivial, but naming conventions are significant factors when you're developing business applications.
A systematic way of naming files, tables, fields, etc. provides a high level of organization, consistency and efficiency to both app developers and users.
A good naming convention also allows an app to be easily adaptable, scalable and transferable throughout its useful life. These benefits all apply for apps developed within Claris’s FileMaker Platform.

There are different factors that contribute to a successful custom application. Of course, function is important, but even if the app does exactly what users need it to do, users may not necessarily like it if it's difficult to use due to poor legibility, navigability, responsiveness, etc. ...

Chris Cain was presenting the use of naming conventions.
This session do NOT advocate for a single naming convention but rather focus on the purposes of a naming convention and considerations when coming up with one's own naming convention or when considering adoption of someone else's.
We've review some different naming conventions and you are encouraged to bring your own to talk about what works and what doesn't.

Try to make a habit in every project of doing some kind of interface inventory exercise after a few cycles of development: You’ll have plenty of real features to examine, and you’ll be able to find places to standardize and tighten up styling, building up the right library of styles to help developers work faster and cleaner in your layouts.

Have you been asked to work in a custom solution but get stumped by the Claris and FileMaker terminology? And you may even be wondering “what is a solution”? If you do a search for “FileMaker glossary,” you will find a lot of information geared toward FileMaker developers and you may end up more confused. This blog is for you, a non-developer, — someone using FileMaker Pro or Claris Pro systems in your daily activities. Having the right names for the right pieces and parts of FileMaker and having a basic understanding of what those things do will help you in a number of situations, such as: you are learning the system or training other users in your system. you need to document processes or workflows of your system. you are working with a developer to make improvements to your system, and you would like to talk intelligently about what these components are and how they work together.

Scripts make up the key technique for FileMaker automation.
Creating scripts can quickly get unmanageable if you do not document them well, have consistency in naming, pass parameters easily, etc. Utilizing some tips can make your FileMaker solution easier to maintain.
At a (recent) FMPUG-MN meeting Matt Larson shared a demonstration of some scripting best…

The Layout Objects window in FileMaker 16 didn’t impress me at first. It seemed like a solution to a problem we didn’t have: developers were already grouping and naming objects so they could move grouped objects out of way when editing layouts. But the more I see it in action, the more I recognize in it what makes working in Photoshop so straight forward: Photoshop supports document “layers” and now FileMaker kind of does too. At least the Layout Objects window supports the biggest things I use layers for: navigation and toggling visibility when editing.

We (DataManix) have created a naming conventions document in collaboration with our great colleagues at SquareMoon Industries.
This should make it more easy to follow and not lock the developer into a very specific way of developing.
The more, who adopt, the easier it will be for new developers to get into FileMaker development and the easier it will be for us to collaborate on projects.
