I'm definitely in favour of having a JS coding standard as well - preferably an industry standard rather than trying to duplicate the PHP guidelines.
http://jscs.info/overview has a list of common presets (and the tool itself might be useful for checking and autoformatting). As far as I know, AirBNB and Google are the most commonly used presets. It might also be worth having a consistent way of creating DOM elements - either a consistent way of doing it in jQuery or a consistently used template engine. For example, Bootstrap has a reasonably nice pure- jQuery style - see https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/blob/cf3f8e0d580888ec9459270ed67dc86c13f5b41a/js/tooltip.js#L37 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.
