+Design Guidelines
+=================
+
+Buttons on the right-hand side if possible.
+
+Button order from left to right: secondary action (cancel etc), primary action (save etc)
+
+Single buttons: normal size, glyphicon and text
+Multiple buttons with the same action (e.g. in a table): btn-sm, glyphicon only, no text
+
+Button colors:
+    Action with irreversible consequences (e.g. delete) = red (btn-danger) 
+    Primary action (e.g. save) = blue (btn-primary)
+    Add/Create = green (btn-success)
+    speciel actions (e.g. send test mail) = yellow (btn-warning)
+    Secondary action (e.g. cancel) = white (btn-default)
+    
+Prefered glyphicons:
+    add (create) = glyphicon-plus
+    add (assign) = glyphicon-share-alt
+    delete = glyphicon-trash
+    remove = glyphicon-remove
+    save = glyphicon-floppy-disk
+    edit = glyphicon-edit
+    cancel = no glyphicon
+    reset = glyphicon-refresh
+    help = glyphicon-question-sign
+    download = glyphicon-download-alt
+    settings = glyphicon-cog
+    
+Tables should be sortable if it makes sense (using the stupidtable-plugin).
+Every column should have a heading.
+
+Bootstrap styled checkboxes and radiobuttons
+
+Modals with an action should have a cancel button.
+Info-modals without an action: no buttons in footer. only x-button in the top right corner to close the modal.
+
+Modals instead of confirm()
+
+Module heading in the top left corner
+
+Subheadings in panels
+
+Saving changes only after using the save button
+
