Guidelines for web developers

Do you programme websites or online applications for Ghent University? This part of the style guide shows you how to create a website correctly, using our corporate design.

This website consciously deviates from the guidelines described in this styleguide, so there is a clear difference between the instruction texts and the examples in html code. 

In the right upper corner of the window you can also see the difference of the browser in desktop - tablet - mobile, corresponding with the device you are using.

1. Introduction

All websites and applications must be correctly referenced in current browsers and must be easily accessible to people with a handicap.

2. Navigation

The identification of a website and the navigation through the site occurs via the header, breadcrumbs, footer and (if necessary) page navigation.

4. Forms

Text fields, dropdown, radio buttons, ...

5. Responsive grid

How does the content behave per device in desktop, tablet and mobile?

7. Templates

Examples of how all components from chapter 'A. Introduction' until '6.Page components' come together.

Need code?

Only the websites that are built with the central cms ‘Plone’ are actively supported.

Developers who program a website without this cms must apply our corporate design, based on this online styleguide.
