 ## Coding guidelines 👩‍💻 👨‍💻 
 
-### Conventions
+### Special comments
 
 * `FIXME(@<username>)` : Use this when you have made an implementation that can be improved in the future, such as improved efficiency
 * `HACK(@<username>)` : Use this when the code you are using a temporary workaround
 * `TODO(@<username>)` : Use this when you have kept something incomplete
 * `UNSAFE(@<username>)` : Use this to explain why the `unsafe` block used is safe
 
+### Comment style
+
+We prefer to use a 'mixed' commenting style: a cross between the C and C++ styles. 
+Generally, if a comment can be explained in one-line, then follow the C++ commenting style.
+In other cases, use the C style.
+
 ### Formatting
 
 * All Rust code should be formatted using `rustfmt`
