August 23 recap: the site responds faster, navigation becomes clearer

A day of fine-tuning focused on speed and clarity. Articles on the site now open almost instantly, images are lighter, and city pages display a single navigation trail. The site remains fully available to everyone, during quiet hours and busy hours alike.

Site pages are now faster and easier to browse, with nothing to install.

• Articles and news now open almost instantly: the site prepares them in advance, instead of composing them on each visit.1News
• Article illustration images are lighter on mobile: they arrive in a few kilobytes instead of several dozen, with no loss of sharpness.
• City pages (regions then departments then municipalities) display a single navigation trail, under the title: no more duplicate above the header.2Example: a city page

Concretely, each visit gains in speed and in reference points.

• News and records respond in a few milliseconds, even when many visitors view the same pages.
• On mobile, article pages load significantly faster: the header image weighs about 5 KB instead of 27 KB.
• You always know where you are when navigating from region to department then to city.

• Monitoring of data leaks from French companies continues: the information found is analyzed one by one, and the affected records are updated.
• A public-interest map of the French economy is being considered: who controls whom, who buys what.3Maps
• Reading guides for the BODACC continue to be published, to learn how to read announcements step by step.4Guides

On August 23, I spent the day making the site faster and clearer. Articles open in a flash, images weigh less, and navigation from region to city no longer gets lost. When consulting official data, speed and simplicity are part of reliability: you find the right page, quickly, and you understand it.
