A style guide is a document that details the set of standards for writing and designing content within an organization. It helps maintain a consistent style, voice, and tone across your documentation, saving documentarians time and trouble by providing a single reference for writing to keep a brand style. It can include a wide range of rules and guidelines from grammar and language use to the font and size of headings in a work. A style guide has everything a writer needs to know to make their work look and read just like every other work written in that style.
