UI guidelines are collections of recommendations that designers and developers follow when creating the user interface for applications. Guidelines can include:

(1)General design principles derived through research. These principles can include the expression of a fundamental design philosophy, assumptions about human behavior, a design methodology, and concepts embodied in the interface.

(2)Standards. Most, if not all, major software platforms have published guidelines for user interface design. One example is the Microsoft® Windows® User Experience, which is subtitled the Official Guidelines for User Interface Developers and Designers.

(3)Local rules or style guide. Many individual companies and organizations have their own set of documented UI rules or styles for interface design that developers in that company use. This is common in large companies especially, where a suite of applications is created internally.
