Production

This guide explains how to set up your project so you can start using the styles and coded examples in the NHS App design system in production.

Before you start

First you must have followed the NHS design system production setup guide.

Include the NHS App frontend in your project

To start using NHS App styles, components and patterns contained here, you’ll need to include NHS App frontend in your project.

Install using npm

We recommend installing NHS App frontend using npm. Using this option, you will be able to:

• selectively include the CSS for individual components
• build your own styles or components based on the palette or typography and spacing mixins
• customise the build (for example, overriding colours or enabling global styles)
• use the component Nunjucks templates
