How this site is designed
Built to keep complicated UK rules readable
UK Daily Tools is a static mini-site focused on work, pay, dates, and business-rule calculators for common UK scenarios.
What the site tries to do well
- Present one clear calculator per page with no cluttered dashboard layout.
- Keep the input flow simple enough for mobile while still showing assumptions clearly.
- Separate rule data from UI code so updates are manageable.
- Support common UK statutory scenarios before trying to cover every edge case.
How rule maintenance works
Each calculator is mapped to public UK guidance. Rule values such as redundancy caps, bank holidays, and holiday reference periods are stored separately from the page markup so they can be checked and updated without rewriting the whole site.
When rules change, the goal is to update the data file, rerun the tests, and publish a fresh “last checked” date on the affected pages.
