Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#18568: doc: Clarify developer notes about constant naming 
05f9770c1f doc: Clarify developer notes about constant naming (Russell Yanofsky)

Pull request description:

  I'm pretty sure developer notes were intended to say constants should be upper case and variables should be lower case, but right now they are ambiguous about whether to write:

  ```c++
  extern const int SYMBOL;
  ```

  or:

  ```c++
  extern const int g_symbol;
  ```

  First convention above is better than the second convention because it tells you without having to look anything up that the value of `SYMBOL` won't change at runtime. Also I haven't seen other c++ projects using the second convention.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
