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.

Sparkle: A software update framework for macOS
Data from analytics.usa.gov [1] reveals that Chrome leads browser usage at 48%, closely followed by Safari at 35.7%, highlighting the competitive proximity of Safari to Chrome. Definitely much higher share than I thought.
