GOV.UK Frontend v6.1.0

To install this version with npm, run npm install govuk-frontend@6.1.0. You can also find more information about how to stay up to date in our documentation.

New features

Use Sass functions to configure asset URLs

You can now use Sass functions from meta.get-function in addition to strings to configure:

• $govuk-image-url-function
• $govuk-font-url-function

This will allow the variables to be configured when loading GOV.UK Frontend as a module once we support @use and @forward.

We made this change in [pull request #6767: Use Sass functions to configure asset URLs](alphagov/govuk-frontend#6767).

Recommended changes

Use <COMPONENT_NAME>/_index.scss to import individual components

We've deprecated each component's _<COMPONENT_NAME>.scss files, which let you import an individual component’s CSS using a single Sass import. We'll remove the _<COMPONENT_NAME>.scss files in the next major release.

If you were using the _<COMPONENT_NAME>.scss files, use the component's _index.scss file instead. For example:

// Previously
@import "govuk/components/button/button";
// Now
@​import "govuk/components/button";

We made this change in [pull request #6761: Deprecate _<COMPONENT_NAME>.scss files](alphagov/govuk-frontend#6761).

Use color: govuk-functional-colour(text) to set the text colour

We've updated how the text colour changes to pure black when printing.

Previously, an additional print media query was included every time you used @include govuk-text-colour:

.my-element {
  color: var(--govuk-text-colour, #0b0c0c);
}
@​media print {
.my-element {
color: var(--govuk-print-text-colour, #000);
}
</tr></table>
