The evolution of the TELUS brand continues! The brand new Universal Design System is now available and all teams are encouraged to transition their applications to UDS components in order to better reflect the latest vision of the TELUS brand.

TDS Core and TDS Community will continue with limited support and restrict new feature requests.

While diving into this documentation, you’ll notice some new updates:

  • We’ll provide direct links to corresponding UDS components from either tds-core / tds-community
  • We’ll provide notice about deprecated components (that may not be implemented on UDS in the near future)

Contact us for more information on how to get support. And join our TELUS Slack channel for updates.

Design Principles

The TELUS design principles are a simple set of rules that enable teams to craft great digital experiences. All experiences must meet these principles. They are used to assess whether an experience is good enough for our customers to use.

Clear and simple designs

  • Promote the brand aesthetic
  • Reduce complexity by constraining choices
  • Ensure customers can complete task on first attempt
  • Leverage usability heuristics

Respect our customers

  • Ensure decisions are informed by analytics and research
  • Designs should be accessible and usable to all
  • Don’t hide information that customers need to achieve their goals

Support the business

  • Balance business goals with customer needs
  • Design for scale

Be efficient

  • Design with consistency by leveraging TDS
  • Look for similar design patterns first
  • All designs need to work within the platform

Measure

  • Designs should have a measurable hypothesis
  • Leverage analytics
  • Test and iterate upon your designs

Mobile first

  • Design for small screens first before moving onto large screens
  • Through responsive and adaptive design, ensure experiences are great across multiple screen sizes

Seek the perspective of others

  • Collaborate by involving cross-functional team members
  • Ensure design is technically feasible and understand how it impacts performance
  • Share your ideas early and often to explore many different solutions and iterations

Think end-to-end

  • Experiences should move a customer towards their goal, leaving no dead ends
  • Support and enable multichannel experiences
  • Test the end-to-end experience to ensure continuity
