Components and Patterns · Working
What is this skill?
Standard GOV.UK components are pre-built, accessible UI elements like buttons, radios, checkboxes, and text inputs that form the foundation of any government service prototype.
Why is it important?
- Accessibility built-in – Components have been thoroughly tested for accessibility
- Consistency – Match the look and feel of live government services
- Speed – No need to build common elements from scratch
- Best practices – Components embody research-backed design decisions
