Upcoming components and patterns
These are the components and patterns we’re working on right now, and the ones we plan to work on next.
We regularly ask our community to help us decide the things we need to work on the most. Read a blog post about how we prioritise new additions to the Design System.

Other components and patterns
Browse our list of discussions on GitHub to find patterns and components that other teams have shared. Any examples, use cases and research you can share would be very valuable for other teams in government looking for guidance or inspiration.
If you can’t find what you’re looking for, you can propose a component or pattern.
If you’d like to contribute a component or pattern that isn’t in the list of priorities, contact the Design System team.
