@meissadia Would this only be something we would display during the beta period?

@natalia-fitzgerald I think it would be something helpful even once things reach the Production stage. On HMDA, clicking that tag links to the project's Github Releases page, which provides interested users with insight into what changes have been made to the site in that version. So if they experienced and reported a bug on v1 they could see what was changed and deployed in v2.

At the same time, it provides developers with an easy visual confirmation that the deployment matches what is expected.

I would vote to keep this feature thought it would take some expansion of the DSR's <FooterCfGov /> component to enable a layout similar to HMDA's.
