Liked Why some DVLA digital services don't work at night

Post details

Every few months or so, somebody asks on social media why a particular DVLA digital service is turned off over night. Rather than answering it every time, I’ve decided to write this post, so I can point people at it in future. It’s a great case study to show why making government services digitally native can be quite complicated.

This is so inspiring: GOV.UK really sweating the details here on performance, removing 32KB of jQuery for a ~5-10% improvement on various metrics for low-powered devices twitter.com/therealnooshu/…

🧵As I mentioned last week GOV.UK removed jQuery as a dependency for all frontend apps, meaning 32 KB of minified & compressed JS was removed. So let's see what difference this has made for users by examining our RUM data. Thread will mainly focus on JS CPU time.

Not to dismiss what colleagues in Government Digital Service (GDS) and Central Digital and Data Office (CDDO) are doing, but there's also a tonne of excellent engineers across the government delivering some really excellent stuff who deserve praise too!

My colleague Bethan wrote about the work we're currently doing on Federated API Discovery across government. Very much recommend a read about why we're doing it, and we'll be doing more posts in the future about progress, but until then, you can check out the repo

Really happy to see the Test For Coronavirus service now making notifications of tests optional - a sign of great #ServiceDesign following user feedback, and continually improving the service. Not only does it remind me something I've literally just done, but saves a lot of money for not sending notifications to people who don't need them. I appreciate that some folks may still want it, especially if you're testing for someone else, so it's great to get that level of control

It only takes me incredible 33 seconds (!) to order a free lateral flow test kit on @GOVUK – from searching for the service to arriving on the confirmation screen. Don’t ever tell me again that private sector services are the benchmark. They are not. This is it. #ServiceDesign
