The UK Intelligence Community's Design System

This Design System helps you to design and build complex, specialised apps and services. It's used by MI6, MI5, GCHQ and our partners to construct tools that keep the UK safe and prosperous.

The Design System empowers through accessibility-by-design, a diverse and inclusive community, and flexible tech and implementation options.

Contribute

The Design System is primarily built for the large numbers of apps and services we have.

While most of the work is undertaken by our Engineering teams, we've open sourced our Design System for the world to see, use and contribute to (which we think is very cool).
