Working on now
Design tokens
We're transitioning to a design token architecture to create a platform-agnostic, single source of truth for our design decisions. Aligned with the W3C Design Token specification and stored in JSON, our tokens will be consumable by any platform, from web and native mobile apps to enterprise applications.
Web components
We are currently developing a platform-agnostic web component library. These are built on the Lit 3 framework and integrate our design tokens for a consistent UI experience. The goal is to allow a single HTML tag to be dropped into any environment and output a fully functional, styled and accessible component.
We’re focusing on our current core components first - see the web components in active development. We will then add further components to support transactional services.
QGDS Foundations and QGDS UI Kit 2
We are moving design token variables, styles and modes into a dedicated Foundations Figma file. These will power a new UI Kit 2, rebuilt to take advantage of the latest Figma features, including slots.
Coming up next
- Header enhancements.
- Patterns for common form fields.
- Updated and more comprehensive page templates.
Future plans
- A UI kit for mobile applications.
- A UI kit for conversational interfaces.
