If it is just language styles and patterns using a linting software is invaluable. Better to have a compiler catch those issues for the developer.

For other domain specific patterns, code review or constant education/reminders are the best way. I found that having a "document" somewhere is only helpful as a reference but people generally don't remember to read it or remember what was written on it. As for where we store that document, some ideas are OneNote or a markdown in your git repo.
