Essex.gov.uk prototyping and Design System

We use this Github repo for user testing and prototyping and developing our Design System.

Branches

Core

By default we are setup to merge code into core branch. this branch is used for developing our Design System. We also have a auto deployment setup to Heroku.

Master branch

We use master only for versions for user testing sessions. This separation of core and master development allows contious iteratoin in both areas without each affecting the other. This is especially ueful during using testing sessions.

We have a seperate auto deployment setup to Herkou.

Setup

We are using Gov.uk Prototype kit, so intial setup can follow their guide here for non-tech and here for those with more technical experience for dependencies installation.

After setup, cloning of this repo into a new folder should work.

Folder structure

We have introduced Component Design principles for our folder structure both for sass and documentation, with the magic happening in /core/ respectfully.
