Documentation guidelines

These guidelines apply to all documentation which is created in the Ankaios project like this website, software design documents or README files. The aim is to support the creators of documents by enforcing a common look and feel.

Capitalization

As 'Ankaios' is a proper noun it shall be written with a capital 'A'. Other words which are not proper nouns shall be in lower case when they are not the first word in a sentence.

Examples:

Correct Incorrect
Ankaios ankaios
Ankaios server Ankaios-Server, Ankaios-server, Ankaios Server
Ankaios agent Ankaios-Agent, Ankaios-agent, Ankaios Agent
workload Workload
control interface Control Interface

The same rule also applies to headlines, i.e. only the first word of a headline is in upper case.
