+# Style Guide
+
+NetBox generally follows the [Django style guide](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/writing-code/coding-style/), which is itself based on [PEP 8](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/). The following exceptions are noted:

+* Constants may be imported via wildcard (for example, `from .constants import *`).
