Code is clean if it can be understood easily – by everyone on the team. Clean code can be read and enhanced by a developer other than its original author. With understandability comes readability, changeability, extensibility and maintainability.

General rules

1. Follow standard conventions.
2. Keep it simple stupid. Simpler is always better. Reduce complexity as much as possible.
3. Boy scout rule. Leave the campground cleaner than you found it.
4. Always find root cause. Always look for the root cause of a problem.

Design rules

Get MongoDB

https://www.mongodb.org/downloads

Or the apt repo based tutorial here for Ubuntu: http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/

MongoDB should match the python pymongo where possible to avoid version mismatch problems.

Take note about updating the mongod.conf file to a non-local host IP if doing db replication.
