Bumps govuk-frontend from 6.4.0 to 6.5.0.

Release notes

Sourced from govuk-frontend's releases.

v6.5.0

To install this version with npm, run npm install govuk-frontend@6.5.0. You can also find more information about how to stay up to date in our documentation.

New features

We’ve introduced the ‘Trial’ status tag for new components or variants of components

We’ve introduced the ‘Trial’ status tag for new components or variants of components that might not meet all our contribution criteria. We release trial components to:

  • get feedback from the community
  • allow services to trial the components with users

See the guidance on Component lifecycles for more information on trial components.

Use the Language navigation component to let users switch between languages

We've added the Language navigation component to let users switch between languages your service offers.

This component is currently in trial status.

We made this change in [pull request #7226: Add Language navigation component](alphagov/govuk-frontend#7226).

Thanks to @​danacotoran for suggesting this component.

Use the Feedback component to collect feedback from users of your service

We've added the Feedback component to help services collect feedback from their users throughout their service.

This component is currently in trial status.

We made this change in [pull request #7232: Add Feedback component](alphagov/govuk-frontend#7232).

Align content of Service navigation's end slot with navigation items

When enough space is available on a user’s screen, you can display content in the end slot in line with the navigation items to the right rather than underneath the navigation items.

This can be useful when inserting content users expect in that area, such as:

  • language navigation
  • authentication and account links

If you use Nunjucks, the end slot now accepts an object with the HTML to insert an align option:

{{ govukServiceNavigation({
  /* Other component options */
  slots: {
    end: {
      html: /* Content of the slot */,
      align: 'inline'
</tr></table> 

... (truncated)
