For a software stack which is integrated with dedicated components for taking care of the wide range of features it offers, having a common guide line for developing code is necessary. Having a coding guide line in place helps in various manners.

• RDK is Being adaptable to opensource projects and tools which are extensively used across components, hence a RDK specific coding convention will allow to identify the abstraction layers and APIs.
• RDK is moving more closer towards a community collaborated software development where it is necessary to having common guidelines for developers across different geographical locations or organizations.  
• The native component or tools used in RDK are written mainly using C, C++ or Python language.

The purpose of this document is to describe the Coding Guidelines for RDK Development to keep entire Dev Team on the same page and thus standardize the code.
