Context

• Sample type: Design system page
• Product: Unified enterprise AI/ML platform and legacy products
• Users: Content designers and technical writers
• Constraints: None—I aimed for the ideal to set a standard

Approach

• I wrote and revised the page’s content, incorporating feedback from the content guidelines team

Rationale

• For years we had an outdated style guide that no one used much
• This page is one of many we added to the design system as part of a larger effort to train the team in current user-centered writing practices

Outcome

• A thorough explanation, with dos and don’ts, of how how to make every word count
