This chapter explained the most accepted coding conventions by pointing to the official Python style guide (the PEP 8 document). The official style guide was complemented by some naming suggestions that will make your future code more explicit, and also a few useful tools that are indispensable in keeping the code style consistent.

All of this prepares us for the first practical topic of the book—writing and distributing packages. In the next chapter we will learn how to publish our very own package on a public PyPI repository, and also how to leverage the power of the packaging ecosystem in your private organization.
