…stem As a developer/Designer, I would like to use my departments frontend system alongside govuk-frontend. So that I can prototype using the same components and patterns that will be used in production. This should not be a breaking change for any existing kits. This is a soft release where GOV.UK Design System team would like HMRC to test before releasing this more widely. A proper release with documentation etc. will be done once this has been battle tested with HMRC.

This is so we can pick up govuk-prototype-kit.config.json file which was added to govuk-frontend to support this extensions feature.

🚀🎉 Amazing work !!! 🎉🚀
Thank you @matcarey for all your hard work on this and a BIG thank you 👏to all those in HMRC who supported and allowed @matcarey the time to work on this great feature which everyone can benefit from in the future.
Although its taken some time, I've enjoyed the collaboration between us all. I love the fact this feature will
- enable quick and easy installation of other departmental frontend systems or components,
- be backwards compatible,
- works on Windows.
