Sources & data status
rechtundgesetz.ch is built on publicly accessible sources, proven tools and a great deal of careful manual work. The official publications and data of the competent authorities always remain authoritative.
Data sources
The most important substantive basis is Fedlex, the federal legal publication platform. Imported enactments, SR numbers, structures and metadata are technically normalised so that they can be searched and classified more effectively on the platform.
rechtundgesetz.ch is nevertheless not an official publication. For legally relevant questions, the respective official version is decisive.
Third-party elements
Font Awesome is used as visual support. The icons are intended to make content easier to grasp without replacing the substantive content or suggesting official significance.
Thanks to the tools behind the work
This platform is not created from one large system, but from many small, reliable tools. A heartfelt thank-you goes to the projects and services that make development, review and maintenance easier every day.
OpenAI
As a valuable Swiss Army knife for analysis, structuring, code review, drafting and cross-checking.
Geany
As a fast, direct editor for focused work without unnecessary weight.
HeidiSQL
As a reliable helper for database checks, local tests and controlled SQL work.
VS Code
Above all for Git diffs and quick comparisons – exactly where clarity matters more than magic.
GitHub
For a strong version-control system, traceable changes and the ability to run even a solo project cleanly and reproducibly.
Important context
Automated imports, technical normalisation and editorial processing may contain errors or lag behind official publications. rechtundgesetz.ch serves as an orientation aid – not as a substitute for Fedlex, authority publications or professional advice.
