Naming Conventions

The definition of a naming convention is very simple: an agreed way of naming things. Defining agreed upon rules is where the waters begin to get cloudy. In AEM, a few important rules should be followed to avoid confusion and keep your site running smoothly, both for the public and behind the scenes.

  1. Use all lower case
  2. Use hyphens instead of spaces
  3. Use descriptive words or phrases
  4. Be concise
  5. Other important naming conventions
