Interesting that the majority of (new?) UK govt software development is by convention Ruby on Rails: https://docs.publishing.service.gov.uk/manual/conventions-for-rails-applications.html https://docs.publishing.service.gov.uk/manual/conventions-fo... Are there other examples of governments mandating the use of specific technologies?

I think that is the gov.uk website, not any UK government software. I think it is quite normal for individual sites to enforce a tech stack for their own site. gov.uk is quite huge - all sorts of things from passport applications, tax returns, car licensing and so on.
