Patterns

Patterns are tested and agreed solutions to common needs.

Patterns often use one or more components and explain how to adapt them to the context.

Use these patterns in addition to those in the NHS design system.

Iterating a pattern

Use existing patterns as starting points, but you may need to iterate them to meet user needs for particular services.

Before iterating a pattern make sure there is a clear user need to do so.

Share any changes you make or research findings in the NHS App design system backlog.
