US Government Publishes Official Web Design Standards

Megalith · Oct 3, 2015

Ill assume that this page is a reflection of what the US government wants all its websites to look like. They generally look clean, but Im getting a little bored of how most responsive web sites look the same, with their gigantic elements.

Built and maintained by U.S. Digital Service and 18F designers and developers, this resource follows industry-standard web accessibility guidelines and reuses the best practices of existing style libraries and modern web design. It provides a guide for creating beautiful and easy-to-use online experiences for the American people.

This, I agree that having a standard across the board from top and down would help us to navigate better.
