What

For example, we have classes for hiding things from the screen (and we'll soon have one for hiding things from print).

Dave House created a prototype that included this information.

Hanna created a list of undocumented parts of GOV.UK Frontend

Why

Without this information, designers and developers will end up recreating these styles from scratch.

Who needs to know

This came up again today on support - a user knew there was a class for hiding things from the screen, but didn't know what it was.

It seems like there's been some progress on this since it was opened, with most utility and override classes now being documented somewhere in the Design System, with govuk-clearfix being the only standout remaining.

For now, however, this issue seems like it's been superceded by #2739 and the discussions taking place there, so I'm gonna close this one off.
