Singapore Government Design System

The Singapore Government Design System (SGDS) aims to empower agencies to develop fast, accessible, and mobile-friendly digital services using a common set of UI components, patterns, and templates that align with the Digital Service Standards (DSS).

Key Benefits

Time efficiency

Accelerate prototyping with plug-and-play components and reusable patterns, allowing teams to focus on enhancing user experience without recreating basic elements for each new product.

Consistency and trust

Achieve a uniform look and feel across digital services by utilising standard text styles, icons, and interface elements, which boosts user confidence and strengthens their intuition when navigating different platforms.

Accessibility and inclusivity

Ensure all components are perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust, complying with the DSS and WCAG to create inclusive digital experiences.

Scalability and flexibility

Adapt UI components to meet specific needs, allowing for customisation while maintaining alignment with overall design standards.

Low maintenance and compliance

Reduce technical debt and simplify compliance with evolving design choices, ensuring adherence to established policies and guidelines for effective digital service implementation.
