Description

  • Interfaces names should start with I.
  • Generic type names should start with T.
  • Exception type names should end with Exception.
  • Methods/funcs names starting with Async should have return type Async<_>.
  • Methods/funcs names finishing with Async should have return type Task or Task<_>.
  • Last but not least, a cosmetic one: any name containing the string Fsharp should be flagged and recommend proper capitalisation FSharp.

Research direction

The issue body defines the DotnetNamingConventions rule and its five naming or return-type checks. Start by locating the existing rule entry points and related tests in FSharpLint, then determine how each convention is represented and reported. Done means all listed conventions are checked, including the Fsharp-to-FSharp recommendation, with tests covering the behavior.
