#UpperCamelCase (#PascalCase) or #lowerCamelCase? 😉

@Jakeout @josh Jake, is #lowerCamelCase just first, first letter lowercases?

@jond Any specific reason for #UpperCamelCase rather than #lowerCamelCase ? Do screen readers trip up on the second one?

It's just that if single-word hashtags are done in all lower case then lower camel case feels more consistent.

@jasonpettus I have been musing on this. No. Having a strong preference between upper camel case or lower camel case does not make you "too much of a nerd."

It makes you the EXACTLY RIGHT amount of nerd.

That said, I myself incline toward upper camel case, perhaps because I taught Pascal for many years.

@Tam5 Great info! Does #lowerCamelCase also work?

@josh is it still readable with #lowerCamelCase?

@Tam5 Question. What about #lowerCamelCase? How dose a screen reader handle those?

Thanks! :D

The #etiquette of #hashtags @eishiya brought up a good question about it. Poll: Which one is your #CamelCase ? #UpperCamelCase ( aka #PascalCase , #BumpyCase ) OR #lowerCamelCase ( aka #camelBack , #dromedaryCase )? Whoa, there are more #synonyms than I thought!

@eishiya great point about #readability. When used in the middle of a sentence, however it seems like it would make more sense to use #lowerCamelCase if it's used as a word.

@azzageddi @Curator yep! its a term often used in programming, may also be called #PascalCase when referring to
#UpperCamelCase vs #lowerCamelCase I suspect both work with readers.
