External-data methodology, refresh cadence, and fallback review
This page is updated when provider integrations, cache windows, or fallback logic change.
Browser-local tools
Many tool pages do not rely on external data at all. File conversion, compression, formatting, and similar utilities run in the browser and document their own supported formats and limits on the detail page.
Weather pages
Weather data and location search are requested through AsKrs service routes backed by Open-Meteo forecast and geocoding responses. Current server settings treat weather as fresh for 15 minutes, stale-usable for up to 6 hours, location search fresh for 1 hour, and stale-usable for up to 7 days.
If a fresh fetch fails, the page may continue to show the last successful cached snapshot and label freshness accordingly instead of pretending the result is live.
Exchange-rate pages
Exchange rates are refreshed through AsKrs using Frankfurter data. The current cache policy treats rates as fresh for 15 minutes and stale-usable for up to 24 hours.
Gold-price pages
Gold reference prices are refreshed through AsKrs using Gold-API responses. The current cache policy treats gold data as fresh for 30 minutes and stale-usable for up to 24 hours.
Trend pages and internal popularity signals
The trending hub uses stored snapshots rather than live client-side scraping. Country detail routes read saved trend collections and can also show anonymous internal search popularity as a secondary signal.
Current server settings cache trend API responses for 5 minutes. If a fresh collection is unavailable, the most recent successful snapshot can remain online rather than leaving the page blank.
Search logging methodology
Internal popularity rankings are built from anonymous search activity recorded through AsKrs search. Logged fields can include the keyword, locale, approximate country signal when available, page path, result count, and a short-lived anonymous session identifier used to reduce duplicate logging.
