-=================
+#### Prefer implicit getters on read-only properties and subscripts
 
-Style guide &amp; coding conventions for Swift projects
+When possible, omit the `get` keyword on read-only computed properties and
+read-only subscripts.
+
+So, write these:
+
+```swift
+var myGreatProperty: Int {
+	return 4
+}
+
+subscript(index: Int) -> T {
+    return objects[index]
+}
+```
+
+… not these:
+
+```swift
+var myGreatProperty: Int {
+	get {
+		return 4
+	}
+}
+
+subscript(index: Int) -> T {
+    get {
+        return objects[index]
+    }
+}
+```
+
+_Rationale:_ The intent and meaning of the first version is clear, and results in less code.
