Widespread Adoption of Delaware’s Lighthouse Design System
Use of the GIC’s Lighthouse Design System continues to spread across the state, through agencies big and small!
Lighthouse Design System provides a WordPress library of pre-designed components that allow agencies to focus on content decisions since the accessibility of the design is already baked in.

You can learn more about Lighthouse and find code snippets through our Storybook site.
Be sure to check out our Lighthouse page, which includes a sign up link.

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to light up new sites and unify Delaware’s digital landscape.
