Yes! Great to see an experiment like this.

Great to see your MVP and experiment over the weekend. The intro copy at the top of the screen suggests that you had contributions from government departments. Who from MoJ contributed please?

Rob Hi, thanks for your feedback 💚 and I can see the wording might be misleading. It was an acknowledgment for contributions of everyone who build ds in gov. I’ve tweaked the wording - let me know what you think? Ofcourse open to more feedback.

Another bit of feedback actually - We are doing a release today to update the MoJ button menu component. But, main point is that the button menu component isn’t a button. Our update today will clarify that a lot more as appreciate it isn’t that clear at the mo.

Ah interesting, yes I found building the matching logic the most trickiest and it showed the nuances and need of context specific component. Also the script for MoJ component was straightforward. The semantic structure of your ds is neat. Looking forward reading the update.

I think it was ok as-is, but appreciate the refinement, just wondered if there was anyone here at MoJ who was involved and helping out? If you don’t have anyone, we’ve got a great DS team here who’d be really interested in helping out and connecting more directly with the GOV DS team and work.

That’s wonderful!
@imhuyorks.bsky.social manages community - you both should connect :-)

@robjmccarthy.bsky.social and I already know each other pretty well Arindra.

Funnily enough, we are running a hackathon on helping join up these design systems on 28 November. Be great to have you there @wholistics.bsky.social
