Technology
datafalke.de is static HTML and CSS: prebuilt pages your browser can display without running any code. No page loads JavaScript. The contact form is handled by a program on our host’s servers (an edge script), so no script runs in your browser for it. Our how-to Contact form without tracking shows how it’s built and how it fights spam without a CAPTCHA.
We generate the pages with Astro 7.4.4 and write our content in Markdown. The design and grid are based on the open-source Carbon Design System (version 11). We use selected Sass modules from it and add our own layer of colors and shapes on top.
The content and code of this website are created with AI assistance.
A lab measurement of load time and Lighthouse scores on the local build, from Nov 14, 2026, is in our measurement log; there’s no data from real visits yet.
Hosting
Hosted by an EU-based provider, stored in Frankfurt, delivered via a CDN.
The CDN is the server network of our host, Bunny (BunnyWay d.o.o., Ljubljana, Slovenia). We use only its servers in member states of the European Union, even if you visit the page from outside the EU. This applies to page delivery; name resolution (DNS) runs on Bunny’s global DNS network.
The website sets no cookies, and when you visit a page, it loads no fonts, scripts, images or other resources from third parties. Our privacy policy explains what happens to your data during a visit.
Fonts
We use IBM Plex Sans (Light, Regular and SemiBold) and IBM Plex Mono (Regular). These are the official, unmodified files from the @ibm/plex-sans 1.1.0 and @ibm/plex-mono 2.5.0 packages. We serve the files ourselves, so your browser doesn’t contact a font service when a page loads. The fonts are licensed under the SIL Open Font License 1.1.
