Summary: Globalbit designed and built the official Israeli Government Design System: hundreds of accessible, RTL-native components across React, Angular, vanilla JavaScript, and HTML/CSS. Adopted by 5,000+ developers across all government ministries. WCAG 2.1 AA compliant. Released as open source. The mandatory standard for every Israeli government digital service. National mandatory standard for all Israeli government websites. 5,000+ developers adopted the system. 4 framework implementations: React, Angular, vanilla JS, HTML/CSS. WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility baked in. Hebrew RTL-first component architecture. Released as open source. Hundreds of production-ready components. Token-based theming for ministry-level branding. Figma kit mirroring code 1:1. Comprehensive developer documentation.

The Israeli Government Design System: the component kit, a government service built with it, and its documentation

Building the Digital Standard for Israel’s Public Sector

Globalbit defined the national Government Design System, setting accessibility, RTL, and interaction standards across ministries. We delivered hundreds of reusable components across multiple frameworks in record time, accelerated by our proprietary AI development platform.

The result is more than a component library. It's national infrastructure: standards, components, themes, templates, design tokens, Figma kits, and comprehensive documentation. Everything a developer needs to build a government website that works for every citizen, in whichever framework their team uses. Infrastructure, not decoration.

[ WHAT WE DELIVERED ]

Standards, Code, and Documentation Across Four Frameworks

We defined the standards, built hundreds of components in React, Angular, pure JS, and HTML/CSS, created the themes and templates, and wrote the documentation. Everything government developers need, in the stack they already use.

[ 01 ]

Unified UX & Interaction Framework

Defined national standards for layout logic, navigation patterns, service flows, content hierarchy, and behavioral consistency across all public digital services.
[ 02 ]

Multi-Framework Implementation Layer

Production-grade libraries delivered across React, Angular, vanilla JavaScript, and HTML/CSS. Same standards, multiple technology stacks, zero fragmentation.
[ 03 ]

Service Pattern Standardization

Defined reusable blueprints for common government services: forms, onboarding flows, identity verification, payments, dashboards. Ministries launch faster by reusing proven service patterns instead of reinventing them.
[ 04 ]

Design-to-Code Synchronization

Established a single source of truth between Figma, documentation, and production code. Designers and developers work from the same system, eliminating drift and reducing implementation errors across ministries.
[ 05 ]

Design Token & Theming Governance

Centralized tokens for typography, spacing, colors, grid, and motion. Enables ministry-level branding while preserving structural consistency nationwide.
[ 06 ]

Adoption & Contribution Model

Versioning, documentation, contribution workflows, and rollout strategy across ministries. A living system designed to scale and evolve over time.

From Research to National Rollout in 4 Phases

[ 01 ]

Research and Audit, 3 Months

Studied international government design systems: UK GOV.UK, US USWDS, Australian DTA. Audited existing Israeli government websites. Mapped unique requirements: Hebrew RTL, accessibility mandates, multi-agency governance, multi-framework support. Output: requirements document and component taxonomy.

[ 02 ]

Standards Definition, 4 Months

Defined the national standards for government UI: accessibility rules, interaction patterns, typography, color system, spacing, responsive behavior, RTL conventions. Worked alongside government teams to validate standards against real agency needs. Output: official design standards document.

[ 03 ]

Component Library Development, 12 Months

Built hundreds of components across four frameworks: React, Angular, pure JavaScript, and HTML/CSS. Every component accessible, RTL-native, and consistent across all implementations. Themes, templates, and design tokens. Output: production-ready libraries for every government tech stack.

[ 04 ]

Documentation and Release, 2 Months

Developer documentation portal with interactive examples, API references, accessibility checklists, and migration guides. Figma design kit mirroring code 1:1. Prepared for open-source release. Output: everything developers need to adopt the system.

[ WHY GLOBALBIT ]

Why the Israeli Government Chose Globalbit

A national design system demands governance, scalability, and developer-wide adoption across ministries. Globalbit brought the infrastructure thinking required to make it work at state level.

[ 01 ]

Recognized UX Leadership

Globalbit’s CEO is an internationally recognized UX expert. The government needed proven authority in large-scale interaction design, not just another development vendor.
[ 02 ]

Deep Design System Infrastructure Expertise

We don’t treat design systems as UI kits. We architect them as scalable infrastructure layers: governance models, version control, cross-framework parity, and adoption strategy built in.
[ 03 ]

Experience with Large, Regulated Organizations

We understand public-sector procurement, compliance requirements, accessibility mandates, and multi-stakeholder governance. We know how to operate inside complex institutional environments.
[ 04 ]

Execution at National Scale

From research and standard definition to multi-framework implementation and long-term maintenance, we had the capability to deliver and sustain a system adopted by thousands of developers.
[ RESULTS ]

We Shipped What Most Tech Companies Can't Even Start

A national design system with hundreds of components across four frameworks, RTL-native, fully accessible, secured by design. Major tech companies struggle with single-framework design systems for internal use. We built one for an entire country.

Official National Standard

The Israeli Government Design System became the mandatory standard for all government digital services. One unified design language for an entire country's public-facing web presence

Built for 5,000+ Developers

Over five thousand developers across government agencies adopted the shared component library. Thousands of independent, inconsistent implementations replaced by one tested, accessible source of truth

Released as Open Source

Full transparency: the design system is publicly available. Community contributions, public issue tracking, and open governance. Government digital infrastructure built in the open

Automatic Accessibility Compliance

Every government website built with the system meets WCAG 2.1 AA. No additional accessibility work required. No citizen excluded from essential public services due to technical barriers
