+# UnifiedBits Code Style Guidelines
+
+This repository outlines the coding standards and best practices for maintaining consistent, readable, and maintainable code across all UnifiedBits projects. These conventions ensure high code quality and seamless team collaboration.
+
+---
+
+## 🌍 General Principles
+
+- **Readability First**: Write code that others can read, understand, and maintain.
+- **Consistency is Key**: Adhere to a consistent style across the project.
+- **Automation Where Possible**: Use linters and formatters.
+- **Comment Thoughtfully**: Explain "why", not just "what".
+- **Follow the Language Conventions**: Stick to official style guides unless otherwise specified.
+
+---
+
+## 🐍 Python
+- **Style Guide**: Follow [PEP 8](https://pep8.org/) and [PEP 257](https://peps.python.org/pep-0257/).
+- **Tooling**: Use `black` for formatting, `flake8` or `ruff` for linting, and `isort` for import sorting.
+- **Docstrings**: Use triple double-quoted docstrings for modules, classes, and functions. Follow PEP 257.
+- **Type Hinting**: Required for public APIs and complex logic to aid readability and editor support.
+- **Testing**: Prefer `pytest` for writing readable, modular unit tests.
+- **Best Practices**:
+  - Avoid wildcard imports.
+  - Prefer list/dict comprehensions over loops where readability allows.
+  - Maintain separation of concerns using clear module structures.
+
+---
+
+## 💻 JavaScript / TypeScript
+- **Style Guide**: Follow [Airbnb JavaScript Style Guide](https://github.com/airbnb/javascript) or official [TypeScript guidelines](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/).
+- **Tooling**: Use `Prettier` for formatting and `ESLint` for linting.
+- **Naming Conventions**: `camelCase` for variables/functions, `PascalCase` for components/classes.
+- **Modules**: Prefer ES6+ `import/export` syntax. Avoid CommonJS unless necessary.
+- **Testing**: Use `Jest`, `Vitest`, or `Testing Library` for test coverage.
+- **Best Practices**:
+  - Use `const` and `let` instead of `var`.
+  - Avoid deeply nested callbacks. Prefer Promises or async/await.
+  - Separate business logic from UI rendering in React apps.
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Dart / Flutter
+- **Style Guide**: Follow [Effective Dart](https://dart.dev/guides/language/effective-dart/style).
+- **Tooling**: Use `dart format`. Enable analysis rules in `analysis_options.yaml`.
+- **State Management**: Choose a state management approach and keep it consistent project-wide.
+- **Naming Conventions**: `camelCase` for variables, `PascalCase` for classes and widgets.
+- **Testing**: Use `flutter_test`, `mockito`, or `bloc_test` for unit and widget tests.
+- **Best Practices**:
+  - Keep widget tree shallow using custom widgets.
+  - Minimize logic in build methods.
+  - Use `const` constructors wherever possible.
+
+---
+
+## ☕ Java
+- **Style Guide**: Follow [Oracle Java Code Conventions](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/codeconventions-contents.html).
+- **Tooling**: Use IDE formatting (e.g., IntelliJ), integrate `Checkstyle` or `SpotBugs`.
+- **Javadoc**: Required for all public classes, methods, and APIs.
+- **Testing**: Use `JUnit` (5 preferred) or `TestNG`.
+- **Best Practices**:
+  - Use access modifiers explicitly.
+  - Avoid null where Optional or collections apply.
+  - Structure large projects using packages by domain/module.
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Kotlin
+- **Style Guide**: Follow [Kotlin Coding Conventions](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/coding-conventions.html).
+- **Tooling**: Use `ktlint` and Android Studio formatter.
+- **Testing**: Use `JUnit`, `MockK`, and `Turbine` for coroutines.
+- **Best Practices**:
+  - Prefer immutability using `val`.
+  - Use extension functions for utilities.
+  - Structure code using sealed classes and data classes for modeling.
+
+---
+
+## 🦫 Rust
+- **Style Guide**: Follow [Rust Style Guide](https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.0.0/style/).
+- **Tooling**: Use `rustfmt` for formatting, `clippy` for linting.
+- **Testing**: Use built-in test framework with `#[test]` attributes.
+- **Best Practices**:
+  - Avoid `unwrap()`; handle errors gracefully using `Result` or `Option`.
+  - Leverage enums and pattern matching.
+  - Use modules to break up large crates.
+
+---
+
+## 🦀 C / C++
+- **Style Guide**: Follow [Google C++ Style Guide](https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html).
+- **Tooling**: Use `clang-format`, `cpplint`.
+- **Commenting**: Document using Doxygen-style comments.
+- **Best Practices**:
+  - Avoid using raw pointers unless necessary.
+  - Use RAII principles.
+  - Prefer modern C++ features (C++11 and above).
+
+---
+
+## 🐘 PHP
+- **Style Guide**: Follow [PSR-12](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-12/).
+- **Tooling**: Use `PHP-CS-Fixer`, `phpcbf`, or `phpstan`.
+- **Testing**: Use `PHPUnit` or `Pest`.
+- **Best Practices**:
+  - Namespaces should follow PSR-4.
+  - Avoid mixing PHP logic with HTML (use templates).
+  - Ensure strict typing with `declare(strict_types=1)`.
+
+---
+
+## 💎 Ruby
+- **Style Guide**: Follow [Ruby Style Guide](https://rubystyle.guide/).
+- **Tooling**: Use `rubocop`.
+- **Testing**: Use `RSpec`, `Minitest`.
+- **Best Practices**:
+  - Use `snake_case` for naming.
+  - Prefer single responsibility for classes and modules.
+  - Leverage mixins/modules for shared behavior.
+
+---
+
+## 🐧 C# / .NET
+- **Style Guide**: Follow [Microsoft C# Conventions](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/fundamentals/coding-style/coding-conventions).
+- **Tooling**: Use `dotnet-format` or IDE support.
+- **XML Documentation**: Required for public classes/methods using `///`.
+- **Testing**: Use `xUnit`, `NUnit`, or `MSTest`.
+- **Best Practices**:
+  - Use `async`/`await` properly for I/O.
+  - Favor `var` only when the type is obvious.
+  - Group using statements and organize namespaces.
+
+---
+
+## ✅ CI/CD Style Enforcement
+
+- Integrate linters and formatters into your GitHub Actions or CI pipeline.
+- Block PRs that fail formatting or linting checks.
+- Example: Run `black .` and `flake8` on Python files as part of CI workflow.
