Style guide tips

Here are some quick tips to align with the portal color themes, color pallette and type ramp that resonate with customers and meets accessibility requirements.

Style guide in Figma

Key style items

  • Segoe UI is the standard typeface of the Azure portal
  • Use sentence case for headers and labels. DO NOT USE ALL UPPERCASE, IT IS HARD TO READ
  • Use 13px as body-text size
  • Wrap text at 75 characters per line
  • All the line style icons align with the monoline icon style from Full MDL Icon font.
  • We use 4px grid system. The smallest padding/margin is 4px.

Screen resolutions

Ensure that your designs work well at all P0 resolutions. Based on telemetry data (see below), resolution priorities are:

  • P0 - experience needs to be great
    • 1366 - portal team uses 1366 × 786 as a baseline. This is often the resolutions at events (Ignite, Build, etc)
    • 1920
  • P1 - experience needs to work
    • >1920
  • P3 – experience needs to work
    • 1024

Designing for 1366 forces a focus on the most important information.
