GOV.UK Frontend · Build Status JavaScript Style Guide

GOV.UK Frontend contains the code you need to start building a user interface for government platforms and services.

Contact the team

GOV.UK Frontend is maintained by a team at Government Digital Service. If you want to know more about GOV.UK Frontend, please email the Design System team or get in touch with them on Slack.

Quick start

There are 2 ways to start using GOV.UK Frontend in your app:

Once installed, you will be able to use the code from the examples in the GOV.UK Design System in your service.

You should also have a plan to stay up to date with changes.

Browser and assistive technology support

To help manage the ever-growing number of browser versions, we group browsers into 4 grades:

Note: Only browsers in grades A, B and C will run our JavaScript enhancements. We will not support our JavaScript enhancements for older browsers in grade X.

For more information see our Browser Support documentation.

GOV.UK Frontend also supports:

Accessibility

The GOV.UK Design System team works hard to ensure that GOV.UK Frontend is accessible.

Using Frontend will help your service meet level AA of WCAG 2.1. But you must still check that your service meets accessibility requirements, especially if you extend or modify components.

You should also use the JavaScript from GOV.UK Frontend and read the accessibility statement for the GOV.UK Design System.
