Description
Discussed in #12
Originally posted by jorge-campo July 7, 2025
As we develop the various document type templates and examples, we must also create the IFT Docs Standards in parallel. These standards expand on the templates information and provide answers to the most common questions.
Sections
The Docs Standards will be structured in sections:
- General guidelines: A short introduction on the aim and general rules to use in IFT Docs.
- Structure the content: A description of the different document types, how to use them, and how to structure them on the left-hand side navigation.
- Style the content: A detailed description of how to style the written parts of the document (paragraphs, lists, tables, etc.)
- Work with media: Guidelines to work with the non-written parts of the document (icons, screenshots, diagrams, etc.)
- Terminology: A list of the accepted and non-accepted terms to use when writing a document (for example, "dapp" vs. "dApp")
