Introduction

In the Python community, developers have a great programming style reference provided as part of the language enhancement process specifications (PEP-8), but in the PowerShell world there has been no official documentation of community preferences.

This document is an attempt to come to an agreement on a style-guide because we know that the more people follow the same set of code-style habits, the more readable the community's code will be. In other words, although the recommendations of this guide are just recommendations, if you follow them, you will write PowerShell code that is more easily read, understood, and maintained.
