It’s not finished, yet
You still have to adhere to some guidelines to avoid turning your whole project upside down.
- Use consistent indentation
- Separate code blocks using a consistent number of blank lines (I like to use 1)
- Use either UPPERCASE or lowercase, but not intertwined
- Group similar items. For example, put CSS with other CSS, and modal code with modal content.
