ADR: Interface naming

Background

In the codebase, we have found a need to have a common way of naming interfaces in order to ensure consistency.

Decision

We have decided to use a naming convention of appending the letter I in front of interfaces to signify that we are in fact using an interface. For props, we use IComponentNameProps.

// Do:
interface IMyInterface {}
interface IMyComponentNameProps {}

// Don't:
interface MyInterface {}
interface MyComponentName {}

The reason for this decision is to remove mental clutter and free up capacity to easily navigate the codebase. Knowing that an interface is prefixed with I allows you to quickly scan a file without watching for a context where the interface is used in order to understand what it is.
