We caught up with Max and Ian from GOV.UK Publishing and agreed that they should review our proposed changes to the header (and footer) to ensure it makes sense for their use case.
Work in progress branch with header updates: https://github.com/alphagov/govuk_publishing_components/tree/rebased-add-layout
@36degrees Just wanted to check - does this include https://github.com/alphagov/govuk-frontend/issues/1904 ? It came up in the Friday call today and I wasn't sure if it was included in this work as it has been split out from https://github.com/alphagov/govuk-frontend/issues/1682
What
The header needs to be more flexible – for example, it should allow for just having one navigational link without that link ending up in a menu on mobile; it should allow custom HTML so that you can include a sign out button (styled as a link).
There might be things we can do to make the header more useful in other contexts - eg, full-width, departmental, admin, caseworking systems, etc.
We should also review the backlog entry for the Header component to see if there are any other outstanding issues we should be looking to address.
