- majkinetor 7y agoGov.UK is not really representative. Its outlier. I was at their Velocity conf presentation and immediately took them as show case on how gov stuff should be done.
- petepete 7y agoI'm working under the GOV.UK umbrella at the moment. The browser compatibility is mainly achieved by using JavaScript very sparingly and trying not to deviate from the Design System[0]. Accessibility is really important and we can't take sites/apps 'live' without undergoing a full assessment. [0] https://design-system.service.gov.uk https://design-system.service.gov.uk
- majkinetor 7y agoSomething like that might be a solution for UI limited sites such as GOV.UK (the reason why I like it, gov sites should look like that, be clean, informative and no distractions). We use Vue.js for frontends so 'using JavaScript very sparingly' doesn't even compute to me. Switched from Angular and I totally understand what you mean (given its more JS hardcore and more problems).
