Note: This page is a work-in-progress. Feedback and suggested improvements are welcome. Please join the discussion on moodle.org or use the page comments.
The greatest risk of this effort is that developers may not find it when they need it, while designing parts of Moodle. Please help: look at what is here already now, and comment: How could it serve your development work better? What aspects of user interface design would you need clear guidelines on? If there is any reason you might not use the guidelines, please tell me about it in the developer forum thread. See also: Introduction
