This International Standard provides recommendations and guidelines for the user-centred design of software user interfaces for World Wide Web applications (in short: Web user interfaces) to increase usability. Web user interfaces address either all Internet users or closed user groups such as the members of an organisation (intranet), customers and/or suppliers of a company (extranet) or other specific communities of users. The recommendations in this International Standard are focussed on the following aspects of designing Web user interfaces: – high-level design decisions and design strategy; – content design; – navigation and search; – content presentation. The user interface of different types of user agents (such as Web browsers) or additional tools such as Web content authoring systems are not subject of this International Standard, although some guidelines may apply to these systems as well. Web user interfaces may be presented on a personal computer system, a mobile system or some other network-connected device. While the recommendations given in this International Standard apply to a wide range of front-end technologies available, the design of mobile Web interfaces or smart devices may require additional guidance that is not within the scope of this International Standard. Detailed guidance on the technical implementation or on issues of aesthetic or artistic design are outside the scope of this International Standard.
