Question

I was wondering what the naming convention for an Interface sub project within a solution would be. I know interface files start with an “I”, does this apply to projects as well?

I have separated the interface into a separate project to keep the solution organised, as opposed to creating a interface file within the project which would be implementing the interface.

All files and projects are contained within one solution.

I apologise if this doesn’t read well.

Answer 1

This is a common pattern for organizing solutions with many projects. However, there is some debate whether (in some cases) it is worth it.

I’ve seen a few different naming conventions used:

1. Inc.Project.Contract
2. Inc.Project.Contracts
3. Inc.Project.Interface
4. Inc.Project (like a base project that is a common dependency)
5. Inc.Project.Common
