ID-SK elements is three things:

  1. An online design guide, explaining how to make your service look consistent with the rest of ID-SK.
  2. An example of how to use the code in the ID-SK template and the ID-SK frontend toolkit.
  3. An npm package of the Sass files.

Linting

GOV.UK lint

Standard JavaScript

ID-SK elements uses standardjs, an opinionated JavaScript linter. All JavaScript files follow its conventions.

Both linters run on CI to ensure that new pull requests are in line with them.

Running Wraith to compare changes

ID-SK elements uses Wraith so that regressions can be easily spotted.

This needs to be run from the Wraith directory /tests/wraith and some dependencies need to be installed on the local machine first.

  1. Install Wraith and its dependencies.

     gem install wraith
     
     brew install phantomjs
     
     brew install imagemagick
    
  2. Take a baseline of the current version.

On master run:

    wraith history config.yaml
  1. Switch to your feature branch and make changes.

On your feature branch run:

    wraith latest config.yaml
