PostgreSQL table & column naming standard

0views0comments

snake_case conventions, mandatory comments, avoiding Postgres keywords.

Overview

Consistent table and column naming keeps the codebase readable and avoids hard-to-spot bugs.

Conventions

Use lowercase snake_case for table/column names; avoid Postgres reserved keywords (user, order, group…) as names.

Mandatory comments

Every table and column must carry an English comment describing its purpose — so nobody has to guess later.
