This gem has been deprecated.

Provides the style assets from the U.S. Web Design Standards as a Ruby Gem.

Provides plugins for use with Jekyll-based web sites. Other frameworks may be supported in the future.

This gem is compatible with Jekyll. If you are looking for a Ruby on Rails version, please see the USWDS Rails gem.

In your Gemfile, include the following:

group :jekyll_plugins do
  gem 'us_web_design_standards'
end

Add a uswds.scss file to your project in the asset directory of your choosing that contains at least the following:

---
---

@import "us_web_design_standards";

Integrate the generated uswds.css file and its styles into your project's layouts and templates, build the site per usual, and observe the results.

First, choose a Jekyll site you'd like to use to view the impact of your updates and clone its repository; then clone this repository into the same parent directory. For example, to use the 18F Guides Template:

$ git clone git@github.com:18F/guides-template.git
$ git clone git@github.com:18F/us_web_design_standards_gem.git

In the Gemfile of the Jekyll site's repository, include the following:

group :jekyll_plugins do
  gem 'us_web_design_standards', :path => '../us_web_design_standards_gem'
end
