Notes on writing new design docs

Document Actions
A summary of different information that should be included in new design documents

All Design Docs Must have:

  • New functionality (how it impacts the user... what is new to do/see)
  • What part of the system it is in (new screens vs changes on existing screens)
  • What motivated the change, what caused the change, why
  • What other parts of the system will this impact
  • A list of features at the level of actions a user can take
  • Workflows - grouping of pages with functionality they provide

Some design docs should have:

  • Screenshots of mockups
