USWDS

The U.S. Web Design System(USWDS) is a design system for the federal government. Its goal is to make it easier to build accessible, mobile-friendly government websites for the American public.

It has been made a more important tool with the 21st Century Integrated Digital Experience Act(IDEA) which states that it should be used for federal government websites.

The Drupal 8 theme for USWDS is maintained be fellow CivicACtioners Iris Ibekwe and Jay Darnell.
