Style guide

A style guide is a reference that establishes the look-and-feel of a user interface by clearly defining the standards and conventions to be conveyed. Style guides usually include the principles that guide the design of the interface, graphic layout grids, exact size and spacing of elements in the interface, fonts, colours, standard text messages (such as error messages), and labelling standards.
