I think HIG means "Human Interface Guidelines" here. Seems to be an Apple thing.

I wish more people would avoid or at least introduce abbreviations that may be unfamiliar to the audience.



Microsoft had one too: WIG!

There are quite a number of them: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_interface_guidelines#Exa...>


I think it was a Xerox thing. But since the 90s, everybody has some since.

Oh, and if you want to read one to learn, the Microsoft ones are better than the Apple's.
