https://www.foia.gov/ has a good example. It uses the 18F glossary that depends on jquery, but that's okay for now.

I particularly like how the glossary terms are defined in markdown, since they are content and should be easy for copy editors to tweak and edit.

This is a CA Civic Lab glossary that I worked on in 2016. It still needs work, but it can get you started.

Here is the CA secretary of state's glossary of CA campaign technical terms: https://www.sos.ca.gov/campaign-lobbying/cal-access-resources/cal-access-users-manual/glossary/

Hello thread,

@jenny-heath sorry for stealing/hogging the ball on this issue. It was my mistake to work on it but not update issue weeks back. The glossary is currently a WIP and there is plenty to do! Three new issues have been born from this original glossary task.

Looking forward to knocking those out in the future as a team ;)

Proposed mock-ups for #290 are here: https://invis.io/M3PL9PAY8XP
