Standards
Handbook.

Values hang on walls. Standards show up in the work.

01

Company

Product excellence, quality assurance, and customer relationships.

Product

  • Every product must be engineered to the highest possible standard, prioritizing performance, reliability, and longevity.
  • Design should be timeless, elegant, and functional, with unwavering attention to detail.
  • Utilize only the highest quality frameworks, practices, and components.
  • Offer opportunities for customization to meet unique user needs.
  • Continuously refine products based on feedback. Never settle for "good enough."

Quality

  • Products should be designed and built for exceptional durability and longevity.
  • Strive for perfection in every aspect — a flawless experience for the customer.
  • Embed a culture of continuous improvement at every level.
  • Zero defects philosophy. Robust quality control at every stage.

Customers

02

Individual

Personal development, family values, and professional conduct.

To remember

  • Your work is a reflection of who you are.
  • You feel emotions, and that is exactly the same for everyone around you.

Family

  • Family comes first. You work to give back to them.
  • Your family can visit you at work anytime.
  • You help your family understand the importance of your work.

Mindset

  • Hard but doable.
  • Empathy is the basic assumption when interacting with people.

You

  • The most respected person in your life is yourself.
  • You take care of yourself first.
  • You are always well-groomed, and smell good.
03

Engineering

Development workflow and pull request best practices.

What makes a great pull request

  • A great title that follows conventional commit message guidelines.
  • A great description with appropriate attachments — screenshots, videos, context.
  • Tested thoroughly. You are confident it works as expected.
  • Appropriate labels and task IDs attached.
  • Clean code, free of linting errors, aligned with the main branch.

What is not a great pull request

  • Raised for the sake of merging code without thought.
  • Raised without a reviewer.
  • Raised without reviewing your own code first.
04

Design

Team structure, Figma workflows, and design principles.

Building a design team

  • Design reports directly to the CEO. No dilution by business needs.
  • The design team is intentionally small. Every designer is hand-picked.
  • Design is independent of product teams — a driving force, not an afterthought.
  • Design is an engineering asset, as important as the engineering work itself.
  • Great design is measured. Everything from design language to UI elements is deliberate.

Using Figma

  • No two Figma files should have the same purpose.
  • Each file is named after its purpose and sub-brand. e.g., "Skcript — FeatureOS — Web"
  • Each artboard should be named and organized.
  • No unnamed layers, groups, or artboards.
  • No unused layers, groups, or artboards.
05

Customer Experience

Human-centered approach to every customer interaction.

To remember

  • Every customer is human. They are full of emotions, and everyone is battling something.
  • Every person deserves the highest level of empathy, respect, and kindness from you.

Emails

  • No first-touch email should take more than 10 seconds to skim.
  • Emails must fit one iPhone screen without scrolling.
  • No abbreviations in emails.

Customer calls

  • All customer calls must be recorded and transcribed with consent.
  • Call recordings are stored inside Skcript Web.
