Oh yes they do excellent work in form type workflows - sharing their patterns as well which I love

This is super-useful. Especially given I built and run a forms SaaS targetted at central gov in the UK.

It's interesting how so many form products discount themselves from this space by either requiring javascript or not being able to deliver the html+css specified in https://design-system.service.gov.uk/components/

There are still snags though. GDS have made some, let's say questionable, tech choices that go against their own mandates, and they're reticent to engage with the commercial sector to help departments adopt their designs/standards. But, overall, it's an excellent resource and makes designing and building forms so much easier.

Can you tell us more about this?
