Create featured News component

[Adedoyinebi]

Based on the request from the comms team on the Intranet project, there is a need to highlight a featured news item. The current vf-news summary container does not have a variant that features a specific news item in the list.

The task is to create a Vf featured news variant based on the feedback of the A/B testing and design mockups for the intranet’s featured news solution.

• Create variant in VF
• Check for accessibility and responsiveness

• Add Documentation and usage guidance

We had a meeting on Wednesday 17th July to discuss the data and use case.

Based on the review of the usage stat, we find that currently there is not a large use case of volume of posts for this feature. Closing this task.
