What is the difference between Snake Case and Kebab Case?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

When comparing naming conventions, it's helpful to map each option to the actual definitions. 
Option 1: 'Snake case doesn't separate words but runs them together.' This is incorrect because snake_case intentionally uses underscores to separate words, not to merge them. The statement reverses the real pattern. 
Option 2: 'Snake case uses underscores to separate words, while Kebab uses dashes.' This accurately captures the standard distinction: underscores (_) separate words in snake_case, and hyphens (-) separate words in kebab-case. 
Option 3: 'Snake Case capitalizes every first letter, while camel case doesn't capitalize the first letter.' This mixes conventions: Snake case does not involve capitalization of words as a rule; it uses lowercase letters with underscores. The description here incorrectly conflates with PascalCase or UpperCamelCase, where each word is capitalized, which is not a feature of snake_case. 
Additional note: For completeness, camelCase keeps the first word in lowercase and capitalizes subsequent words, while PascalCase capitalizes every word; these are different from snake_case and kebab-case, which focus on separators and consistent lowercase usage. 
In sum, Option 2 is the only statement that faithfully describes the difference between snake_case (underscores) and kebab-case (dashes).
