styleguide VS CppCoreGuidelines

Hey, looking for a way to change the default PEP-8 code style to the one of Google. I see that I can set it manually or import the settings, but I've been unable to find a settings file (other than this one for Vim). I also haven't been able to find examples of what a PyCharm-supported settings file would be formatted like, so I can write one myself.

Google C++ Style Guide Example

I use intellij and import Googlecodestyles, modify it a bit to my liking and save that setting. I believe they have one for eclipse also. I believe this it is https://github.com/google/styleguide/blob/gh-pages/eclipse-java-google-style.xml

For latest rules of ShardingSphere, see [shardingsphereeclipseformatter.xml](https://github.com/apache/shardingsphere/blob/master/src/resources/shardingsphere_eclipse_formatter.xml). For references, check the [eclipse-java-google-style.xml](https://github.com/google/styleguide/blob/gh-pages/eclipse-java-google-style.xml) file.

Would it be possible to get IDE level formatting capabilities? I am not exactly looking for IDEL level customisability. I just need a way to figure out how to use Google Style Guides to format codes while editing.

You just need to have the desired Format rules, like https://github.com/google/styleguide/blob/gh-pages/intellij-java-google-style.xml

Since it's been around since 2003, I'm curious to know how many projects out there are using it. Would be great if there are some open source examples available as well. I mostly stick to Python, so I'm most familiar with the Google docstring format[1], but seeing as there are other ones[2] as well aren't those usable for other languages too? Seems to be the case of yet another "standard", though since this is such an old project I may out of my depth in saying that.

You need to talk to Bjarne and Herb...

"C++ Core Guidelines" - https://isocpp.github.io/CppCoreGuidelines/CppCoreGuidelines

In addition to the other comments -

TypeScript deliberately takes a "good enough" approach to improving JavaScript, instead of designing an ideal but incompatible approach. For example, its handling of [function parameter bivariance](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/type-compatibil...) is unsound but works much better with the existing JavaScript ecosystem. By contrast, a more academic functional programming language would guarantee a sound type system but would be a huge shift from JavaScript.

By analogy, Herb Sutter is arguing that something like the [C++ Core Guidelines](https://isocpp.github.io/CppCoreGuidelines/CppCoreGuidelines), with tooling help in this new Cpp2 syntax, can bring real improvements to safety. Something like Rust's borrow checker would bring much stricter guarantees, backed by academic research and careful design, but would be incompatible and a huge adjustment.

Take a look at Effective Modern c++ by Scott Meyers and the ISO c++ core guidelines. These resources are great for learning how to write better, more modern C++. I don't think it would be hard to grasp if you're already familiar with the language, just make sure to actually write some code which makes use of this stuff, otherwise it's easy to forget.

Look to the C++ Core Guidelines. It's not perfect, it has some flaws, including some sabotaging advice apparently adopted for political reasons. But at least it has some C++ authorities (Bjarne and Herb) as authors.
