These prototypes can be used to show ideas to people you work with, and to do user research.\n\nRead the [project principles](https://prototype-kit.service.gov.uk/docs/principles).\n\n## Make sure prototypes are password-protected\n\nIf you publish your prototypes online, they **must** be [protected by a password](https://prototype-kit.service.gov.uk/docs/publishing). This is to prevent members of the public finding prototypes and thinking they are real services.\n\nYou must protect user privacy at all times, even when using prototypes. Prototypes made with the kit look like GOV.UK, but do not have the same security provisions. Always make sure you are handling user data appropriately.\n\n## Installation instructions\n\n- [Installation guide for new users (non technical)](https://prototype-kit.service.gov.uk/docs/install/getting-started)\n- [Installation guide for developers (technical)](https://prototype-kit.service.gov.uk/docs/install/getting-started-advanced)\n\n## Node version requirements\n\nWe always recommend you use the [current long term support (LTS) version of Node.js](https://github.com/nodejs/release#release-schedule).\n\nThe Prototype Kit always supports at least the current and previous LTS releases.\n\n## Support\n\nThe GOV.UK Prototype Kit is currently maintained by the [GOV.UK Design System team](https://design-system.service.gov.uk/get-in-touch/). There is only [minimal support in place](https://github.com/alphagov/govuk-prototype-kit/issues/2389).\n\nIf you’ve got a question, idea or suggestion, share with the community of users on the [#govuk-prototype-kit channel on cross-government Slack](https://ukgovernmentdigital.slack.com/archives/C0647LW4R).\n\n## Contributing\n\nIf you’ve got an idea or suggestion, you can:\n\n* [get in touch on the developer Slack channel](https://ukgovernmentdigital.slack.com/app_redirect?channel=prototype-kit-dev)\n* [create a GitHub issue](https://github.com/alphagov/govuk-prototype-kit/issues)\n\nThe govuk-prototype-kit repository is public and we welcome contributions from anyone.\n\nContributors to alphagov repositories are expected to follow the [Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct](https://github.com/alphagov/.github/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md#contributor-covenant-code-of-conduct). Contributors working within government are also expected to follow the [Civil Service code](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/civil-service-code/the-civil-service-code).\n\nWe're unable to monitor activity on this repository outside of our office hours (10am to 4pm, UK time).
