Bumps the prod-safe-updates group with 1 update: govuk-frontend.

Updates govuk-frontend from 6.3.0 to 6.4.0

Release notes

Sourced from govuk-frontend's releases.

GOV.UK Frontend v6.4.0

To install this version with npm, run npm install govuk-frontend@6.4.0. You can also find more information about how to stay up to date in our documentation.

New features

You can now use the Interruption panel to pause the user’s journey and give important information

We’ve introduced an interruption variant of the Panel component.

You can use Interruption panels within Interruption pages to warn users before they:

  • do something unusual that’s probably a mistake
  • do something that cannot be undone (so you can ask the user “Are you sure?”)
  • give an answer that conflicts with existing information

See the guidance on the Design System website for more information on how to use the Interruption panel in your service.

We made this change in [pull request #6636: Add interruption panel](alphagov/govuk-frontend#6636) - thanks to @​frankieroberto and the NHS Design System team for contributing this change.

You can now pass day, month, year, error and values options to the Date input component

We've updated the Date input component to add the following Nunjucks options:

  • day, month and year options to customise individual items
  • an error boolean option to set the error state on individual items
  • a values option to set individual item values using a single object

For consistency with other components, the Date input component's error state is now set automatically when errorMessage is provided.

For example, you no longer need to set the "govuk-input--error" class on every item:

  {{ govukDateInput({
    fieldset: {
      legend: {
        text: "What is your date of birth?"
      }
    },
    errorMessage: {
      text: "Enter your date of birth"
-   },
-   items: [
-     {
-       name: "day",
-       label: "Day",
-       classes: "govuk-input--width-2 govuk-input--error"
-     },
-     {
-       name: "month",
-       label: "Month",
</tr></table>
