Why dots work well for keys

Dots read naturally as "inside". settings.email.sender tells you straight away that the sender belongs to the email part of the settings. Many tools take advantage of this. Laravel's config('mail.from.address'), i18next translation keys and Spring Boot properties all use dots to reach into nested values.

Good habits for naming keys

Go from general to specific: account.billing.title, not title.billing.account.
Keep each part short and lower case so keys are easy to search.
Stay consistent across the whole project. Mixing user.name and user_email makes keys harder to find later.

Need a different separator? Try snake_case, kebab-case or path/case.

Frequently asked questions

What is dot.case?

dot.case writes every word in lower case and separates them with a full stop, like user.profile.name. It is sometimes called dot notation.

Where is dot.case used?

Mostly for keys that describe a hierarchy: translation files in apps (checkout.button.pay), configuration settings (database.connection.timeout), logging and analytics event names, and Java style package names.

Can I convert camelCase to dot.case?

Yes. The tool splits words wherever a capital letter starts a new word, so pageTitleText becomes page.title.text.

Does it keep numbers?

Yes. Numbers stay attached to their word, so "step 2 title" becomes step.2.title.
