Looking up the words "standard" and "conventions" in Google Translate gives me
multiple translations (as both words do have multiple meanings I pretty much
expected that).

Using the following definitions of standard and convention, what kanji(s) are
used:

Standard: something established by authority, custom, or general consent as a
model or example

Convention: a way in which something is usually done, especially within a
particular area or activity.

How would you say/write "coding standard" or "coding conventions"? (Am aware
"coding" is just "コーディング". lol)

question
kanji phrases english-to-japanese
Standard/Conventions in Japanese
The primary word for _standard_ is 標準 and the primary word for _convention_ is
慣習. But there are many possible expressions.

  * コーディング標準: This refers to established, widely-known, authoritative and named standards. 標準 is a word that sounds highly technical. HTML Standard is HTML標準.
  * コーディングスタンダード: The same as 標準. In the programming field it's often best to leave many words untranslated, you know :)
  * コーディング規約: This can include more local ones like "Coding Style of XYZ Project/Company". Still this sounds you have to consider it a rule.
  * コーディングスタイルガイド: Sounds less strict than 規約; it's not a rule but a guideline. How strictly you have to follow the guideline depends on the project.
  * コーディングの慣習: Coding convention, which may even be undocumented.

answer
> Standard coding = 標準的記述法  
>  Conventional coding = 慣例的記述法

e.g. regex is translated 正規表現
