Abstract

This document presents the Web Energy Archive (WEA) project led by the Green Code Lab. This tools aims at measuring the computer resource consumption (energy, memory…) of the loading of a website in a browser. Firstly, considering the measure of 500 websites, website behavior can be characterized in terms of environmental impact. In a second step, best practices (green patterns) can be recommended to developers but also to browser editors.
