Federalist + U.S. Web Design System + Jekyll

This Jekyll theme is developed using the U.S. Web Design System v 2.0 and is focused on providing developers a starter kit and reference implementation for Federalist websites.

This code uses the Jekyll site engine and built with Ruby. If you prefer to use Javascript, check out federalist-uswds-gatsby, which uses Gatsby site engine.

This project strives to be compliant with requirements set by 21st Century IDEA Act. The standards require that a website or digital service:

• is accessible to individuals with disabilities;
• has a consistent appearance;
• does not duplicate any legacy websites (the legislation also requires agencies to ensure that legacy websites are regularly reviewed, removed, and consolidated);
• has a search function;
• uses an industry standard secure connection;
• “is designed around user needs with data-driven analysis influencing management and development decisions, using qualitative and quantitative data to determine user goals, needs, and behaviors, and continually test the website, web-based form, web-based application, or digital service to ensure that user needs are addressed;”
• allows for user customization; and
• is mobile-friendly.

Security Policy Violation
Security policy not enabled.
A SECURITY.md file can give users information about what constitutes a vulnerability and how to report one securely so that information about a bug is not publicly visible. Examples of secure reporting methods include using an issue tracker with private issue support, or encrypted email with a published key.

To fix this, add a SECURITY.md file that explains how to handle vulnerabilities found in your repository. Go to https://github.com/GSA/open.usa.gov/security/policy to enable.

For more information, see https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/getting-started/adding-a-security-policy-to-your-repository.
