The UAE Design System (DLS) is the official system for United Arab Emirates federal government websites, maintained by the Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority, built on Tailwind CSS with every component vetted for WCAG 2.2 AA compliance.
Version 3.0 is fully open source and explicitly built to be configured to a different brand, a rare, deliberate design choice for a government system that most public-sector design systems don't offer, since they're usually locked to one government's exact visual identity.
GovTech designers and developers, especially those working with Tailwind CSS already, who want an accessibility-first system that can be rebranded rather than adopted as-is.
Built on TailwindCSS specifically, so it integrates naturally into any project already using Tailwind rather than requiring a separate CSS methodology.
The UAE federal government's design framework — components, accessibility guidelines, and developer resources.
