:warning: This repository has been deprecated and is now read only. This repository was for the first iteration of the NHSX website, which has now been redeveloped into a CMS.
From 1 July, NHSX will bring together teams from the Department of Health and Social Care, NHS England and NHS Improvement to drive digital transformation in health and care.
The NHSX website contains information about what we do, who we are, how we work and also links to key information and tools.
We have built the website using the NHS.UK frontend library.
Install the long-term support (LTS) version of Node.js, which also includes NPM.
Clone the repository git clone git@github.com:nhsx/nhsx-website.git nhsx-website, then whilst in the project directory cd nhsx-website, install the required npm packages with: npm install
Run the project in development mode npm run watch and visit http://localhost:3000.
The code for the NHSX website is in the open and we encourage contributions. So if you come across a bug or a spelling mistake, feel free to open a pull request with your changes or you can open a GitHub issue to report it to us.
