I'm not sure tags is the right approach vs a partial. We need to discuss how we go about these things before proceeding with the work

[ChrisJets432]

With previous conversions about introducing a DFE version of the govukaspnetcore repo I thought if that's the aim instead of repeating work this could be introduction where we could then just lift and shift with minimal effort.

[paulcustance-al]

Fair enough @ChrisJets432, I can see the logic if a DfE version of govuk-aspnetcore is definitely happening. My concern is that it isn't a decision yet, it's something we've talked about a couple of times. Building this PR around a target that doesn't exist means we take on the cost now for a payoff that might not land. I know it seems small but these things quickly balloon if left unchecked.

There's also a tag helper vs partial tradeoff on its own terms that I don't think we've properly weighed that up and a quick convo before starting would allow us to iron out the direction and that's something I want to encourage we do early before the work starts in earnest. I think here we should try and utilise the output from the design team, lift the html / scss they've created into a small partial.

[ChrisJets432]

Okay @paulcustance-al, the way previous conversations have happened I thought it was a done deal - we've even had countless conversations about giving to the community.

If partials are the preferred option, drop the tag helpers and I'll stash that work once I'm back as a just in case we use them.
