Tero Väänänen explains why the NHS design system exists and why it plays an important role in fulfilling the 10-year health plan. He also describes recent changes to the frontend code behind the design system, and why it is important for teams to adopt them now.
The NHS is moving from analogue to digital, and the NHS design system plays a critical role in making sure that shift results in accessible and usable digital products.
It does this by giving teams across the system a shared set of tools and standards, which reduce the effort needed to deliver digital products and services.
