Questions that follow coding style and conventions.
Coding-style or Programming style is a set of rules or guidelines used when writing the source code for a computer program. It is often claimed that following a particular programming style will help programmers to read and understand source code conforming to the style, and help to avoid introducing errors.
Questions relating to coding style: stylistic issues like braces and indentation or larger issues like refactoring, size of functions, and so forth.
Where can I ask these questions?
Process-level questions about coding conventions or style guides may be on-topic for Software Engineering. That also covers design-level questions
If you want to improve your style, you can ask for a Code Review.
Questions that ask for the “best style” or for advice in a specific situation are too subjective and/or too broad.
