GOV.UK Template

GOV.UK Template has now been replaced by the GOV.UK Design System

GOV.UK Template:

• is no longer maintained
• will only be updated for major bug fixes and security patches
• does not meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1 level AA) accessibility standard

This framework will remain available in case you’re currently using it. To help your service meet accessibility requirements, you should use the GOV.UK Design System. You can migrate to the Design System from GOV.UK Template.

Examples

These are a collection of auto-generated examples of the current govuk_template release showing how you can use the template.
