+# Gemlog Style Guide
+
+## File Naming
+All files should be named as the date (YYYY-MM-DD)) and title with - replacing the spaces.
+
+### Why
+This allows proper sorting while also being able to quickly see what content is in the file.
+
+### Example
+```
+2020-04-22-My-First-Gemlog.gmi
+```
+
+## Title 
+All gemlogs should contain a title denoted by a single `#` with one whitespace afterwards, then the title.
+
+### Why
+Besides # denoting h1, which is common for titles, the single space afterwards looks nice if the gemini client does not render the #.
+
+### Example
+```
+# My First Gemlog
+```
+
+## Sections
+Sections should be denoted by two `#` which corresponds to h2 with white space above and no whitespace below.
+
+### Why
+Sectioning posts keeps things nice and tidy, while using h2 keeps the content broken separated well without needing unnecessary whitespace.
+
+### Example
+```
+...
+Here is some content for the previous section 
+
+## Foo Section
+Here is the first sentence of the Foo Section
+```
