In this presentation, I will guide you through the step-by-step process of creating a style guide. You will learn what considerations to make before starting, the stages involved in its development, what content to include, and why it's essential. We will dive into the following topics:
- Foundations of a Style Guide: Understanding the critical initial data and external resources for inspiration.
- Creation Workflow: A detailed explanation of each step in the process.
- Content Development: Ready-made rule templates with practical examples.
- Glossary Development: Why we have multiple glossaries, and how we agreed on word usage, as the most atomic part of the rules in the guide.
- Template Documents: How to develop them and which structure to use, as the largest rules within the guide.
By the end of the presentation, you'll have a set of tools, including templates, references, workflows, and useful links, empowering you to independently create a style guide that functions effectively within your team.
