Nokia Series 60 manual Editorial notes

Editorial notes

A style guide should give an overview and provide enough guidelines for designing good applications, but not all the information to write the software. This is intended to be a compact and easy to read guide, which means skipping many details that can be found in other documents. There's no general discussion about good usability; instead this document tries to clarify how the style elements of the Nokia Series 60 user interface are meant to be used in practice.

The content is also intended to be independent of product-specific hardware, so that the guidelines would apply to any product that implements the UI style. Sometimes this means dropping out things that would be appropriate for one product but maybe not for another one.

A few example images in this version are not final.
