Good practices in eco-design
This brochure is a complement to the 3 brochures of good practices related to software development offered by the network of SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT players within Higher Education and Research: DevLOG. This section is dedicated to good practices in terms of digital service ecodesign which make it possible to apprehend, understand and reduce the environmental footprint of digital technology. After having explained the general context in a first sheet, a second sheet ("But why?") Highlights the need to integrate an environmental dimension in our digital service designs, and consequently in our software developments. The third sheet ("When?") Recalls the stages in the life cycle of a digital service to introduce the best practice sheets that correspond to the different stages: "Before", "During" and "After", keeping in mind the mind that development is often iterative, and the boundaries between the different stages are permeable. At the end of the brochure, you will find a specific sheet on good ecodesign practices for scientific computing, as well as sheets on development on a mobile platform, for the web and on the accelerator.

Coldcms
A CMS built for ecological performance. ColdCMS is a Django project based on Wagtail CMS and Bulma CSS Framework. Admin can edit websites through intuitive and user-friendly interface. Different types of pages are pre-designed, which allows you to have a beautiful website without spending hours on it.
