USWDS: The United States Web Design System
> Especially the contrast/magic number discussion.
From a developer perspective, working with color palettes with defined "magic numbers" is really great. I have written a blog post [1] around this topic and wrote a tool [2] to calculate/ensure accessible magic numbers for color palettes.

Firefox on the brink?
Now and then I stumble upon the USWDS (the article mentions it) and am surprised how good that thing actually is.

A design system for the federal government
I would like to note that there currently is no centralized Design System for the Dutch Government, unfortunately. All agencies are creating their own Design System based on the Rijkshuisstijl.
Currently I'm working on ROOS (https://rvo.nl/roos) which is the Design System for the Netherlands Enterprise Agency. This is build with the already mentioned NL Design System. My hope being that this will bring the different agencies together and start working on a centralized Design System for the Dutch Government and follow the excellent examples of https://design-system.service.gov.uk and https://designsystem.digital.gov/

Visual design rules you can safely follow every time
FYI I recommend following U.S. gov't standards: https://designsystem.digital.gov/documentation/developers/
Dark/light mode is fine and all, however be wary of accessibility. Note that the US actually even publishes it's own CSS/JS framework similar to bootstrap. I believe (but I am not positive) it is here: https://designsystem.digital.gov/
I don't claim it to be perfect, but the last time I had the opportunity to use it, it put other UI/UX frameworks to shame.
