There is a renewal project under way. Refreshed design, different technology. It isn't published yet because everything is still changing. But this bootstrap based styleguide will be discontinued. There will be a design system, based on the tailwind CSS framework, published on storybook.
Thanks @Soardiac for the news, this sounds very promising!
Is there any rough E.T.A. when the new project will be released?
I don't know when a first version will be published. But I hope it will be within weeks.
I'm also interested in new version. thanks for any updates
Will be also possible to use the library without bootstrap at all ?
@msio , yes, the new version won't use Boostrap at all.
@gillerr thanks that's great news. anyway any update on release date :D ?
I'd like to share a few informations I found out upon further inquiries, that may make it easier for others to understand the state of this project and its rewrite:
npm audit
, 304 security vulnerabilities in its dependencies. Due to the re-implementation, I doubt that there will be any maintenance work fixing this situation.So to summarize, the situation for sites planning to launch in the next few months is a bit dodgy.
For more information you may contact webforum@bk.admin.ch.
Two years in, I would expect this rehaul to have moved on, but I am unable to find any information. This thread mentions 01.01.2023 as a release date. Looking at the current version of the READ.me file, this seems to have been moved back to July 2023. Both of these dates are long gone. Preparing for another website project for a federal office, we really would like to avoid building on a library that is eight years old. Where can we get our hands on the rewrite, be it only a preliminary version?
Is this project still maintained? It depends on Bootstrap 3.3.7 while the latest v3 release is 3.4.1. Also, starting a new project with Bootstrap 3, while Bootstrap 5 is available, feels a bit funky.
As far as I understand, the only alternative is https://oblique.bit.admin.ch/ – which is tied to Angular. It would be nice to have a up-to-date, framework-agnostic implementation of the Swiss Confederation Web Guidelines (see also: https://github.com/oblique-bit/oblique/issues/39).
