+Coding Style & Guidelines
+=========================
+
+The following sections contain |TFACMF| coding guidelines. They are continually
+evolving and should not be considered "set in stone". Feel free to question them
+and provide feedback.
+
+Rules
+-----
+
+#. CMake file names use `CamelCase`_ formating.
+#. Indent with tabs and otherwise use spaces. Use 4 spaces for tab size.
+#. Use LF as line end in CMake files.
+#. Remove trailing whitespace.
+#. When complicated functionality is needed prefer CMake scripting over
+   other languages.
+#. Prefix local variables with `_`.
+#. Use functions to prevent global name-space pollution.
+#. Use `snake_case`_ for function and variable names.
+#. Use the ``include_guard()`` CMake function when creating new modules, to
+   prevent multiple inclusion.
+#. Use self contained modules, i.e. include direct dependencies of the module.
+#. Use the Sphinx CMake domain for in-line documentation of CMake scripts.
+   For details please refer to the `CMake Documentation`_.
+
