Designing your Microsoft Teams app

Conceptual image introducing the Microsoft Teams design guidelines.

Whether you're a designer, product manager, developer, or maker using low-code tools, these guidelines can help you quickly make the right design decisions for your Microsoft Teams app.

Creating a cohesive experience

Designing a Teams app is like designing a conventional web app—but also a little different. An effective design highlights your app's unique attributes while fitting naturally with Teams features and contexts.

These guidelines and resources can help you strike that balance. You'll know what to do and what to avoid when designing your Teams app (such as multilevel navigation in a tab).

Teams app design principles

Teams apps help people achieve more together. Use these principles to guide your design.

Collaborative

Teams app promotes collaboration through coordinated and shared activity among users.

Trustworthy

The app is secure and compliant. Users can easily find information about privacy.

Globally inclusive

People of all backgrounds, skillsets, and disciplines can use the app. It’s culturally, racially, and socially aware.

Light

The app focuses on core scenarios that blend with Teams workflows.

Native or distinct

The app uses native Teams design components or your own. There’s no blend of color schemes, controls, and so on.

Useful

The app is based on a scenario people need to do in Teams.

Easy to use

The UI is easy to understand, pleasant in look and tone, and makes people more productive.

Responsive

The app is device- and screen-agnostic.

Accessible

The app meets Teams accessibility requirements in terms of color contrast, navigation alternatives, and more.

Well described

Teams design system

Learn the fundamentals of Teams app design, including layout, color schemes, and more.

App capabilities

Understand how people add, use, and manage Teams apps to make the most of each capability in your design.
