A style guide is a reference document that establishes standards for writing, design, or code within an organization or publication, covering elements like grammar, tone, formatting, branding, or coding conventions (e.g., the AP Stylebook, Chicago Manual of Style, or Google's coding style guides). Writers, editors, designers, and developers use style guides to ensure consistency across teams and outputs. They help maintain a unified voice and reduce ambiguity in collaborative work.
