Question

Is it bad to have long names on _Partialviews?

Like _Header_detachable_nav, and that partial is gone have other partials _Header_detachable_nav_cart,
_Header_detachable_nav_navigation

is this bad practice, does it matter at all?

Answer 1

The underscore in the partial view helps to differentiate between full views and partial ones.

But more importantly, it prevents partial views from being loaded directly by their URL, which could provide some potentially ugly results! (Like no css, for starters.)

However It’s not necessary to use an underscore.

And instead of having names like _Header_detachable_nav_cart instead you can use camelCase like for example _HeaderDetachableNavCart
