Before you start

This website is aimed to provide developers and other professions with a reference point for ÖйúPÕ¾'s design code, while also supporting those without background knowledge. It includes national and local guidance and policies and is presented as:

• 'Musts' (mandatory requirements)
• 'Shoulds' (requirements that require justification to deviate from)
