4.0.0

Breaking

  • BREAKING: drop support for end-of-life Ruby versions 2.7 and 3.0. The minimum Ruby version is now 3.1.
  • BREAKING: drop support for IE8
  • BREAKING: Upgrade to govuk-frontend v5.7.1 and introduce new Javascript entry point

To upgrade you need to:

  • create a govuk_frontend.js file your project’s source/assets/javascripts directory
  • add //= require govuk_frontend_all into it

Fixes

  • Update gem dependencies.
  • Declare some missing indirect dependencies to prepare for Ruby 3.4. This also resolves some warnings about this at build time.
  • Remove aria-hidden from search label to let assistive technologies see its accessible name
  • Use hidden attribute to show/hide expiry notices instead of just CSS
  • Only use dialog role for table of contents when it behaves like one (accessibility fix)
  • Prevent interactive elements being obscured by sticky table of contents header
  • Only wrap images with alt text in hyperlinks
