Question

I’ve recently been tasked with pulling together 4 independent developers at my company into a cohesive team that generates similar (and good) code as a team.

We’re implementing the use of iDesigns C# coding standard which will help our code look similar, and does give some implementation guidelines, but is there a general standard, rules of thumb (Top 10) out there for how code should be built, what every class should ‘have’ or ‘do’?

I read this article by John Connelly about implementation practices, but am not having much luck in finding more references on the subject.

Is there a Implementation ‘standard’ out there for c# classes/projects? or is it such a broad subject that it can’t be defined?
