- Follow Ruby and DragonRuby conventions and best practices.
- Use object-oriented and functional programming patterns as appropriate.
- Prefer iteration and modularization over code duplication.
- Use descriptive variable and method names (e.g., user_signed_in?, calculate_total).
- Structure files according to DragonRuby conventions.

Naming Conventions

- Use snake_case for file names, method names, and variables.
- Use CamelCase for class and module names.
- Follow DragonRuby naming conventions.

Syntax and Formatting

- Follow the Ruby Style Guide (https://rubystyle.guide/)
- Use Ruby's expressive syntax (e.g., unless, ||=, &.)
- Prefer single quotes for strings unless interpolation is needed.

Error Handling and Validation

- Implement proper error logging and user-friendly messages.
