About Text to camelCase Converter
**What is camelCase?**
camelCase (also written as CamelCase) is a naming convention commonly used in programming. Words are concatenated without spaces, with each word after the first starting with a capital letter. The name comes from the "humps" created by the capital letters, resembling a camel.
**Types of CamelCase:**
- **lowerCamelCase**: First word lowercase, subsequent words capitalized (e.g., firstName, getUserData)
- **UpperCamelCase/PascalCase**: All words capitalized (e.g., FirstName, GetUserData)
**Common Use Cases in Programming:**
- JavaScript variable and function names
- Java method and variable names
- C# property and method names
- JSON property keys
- CSS-in-JS property names
- API endpoint parameter names
