 ## Development
 
-The project consists of a **single-page-app with React** on the frontend and a **web API with Django Rest Framework** on the backend.
+The project consists of four parts:
+
+- a **single-page-app** built with [React][react] (`/frontend`);
+- a **web API** built with [Django Rest Framework][drf] (`/backend`);
+- a **dynamic proxy** implemented on the [Apache HTTP Server][httpd] (`/proxy`);
+- a **Docker image** containing a single instance of [JupyterLab][jupyterlab] (`/jupyter`)
+
+[react]: https://reactjs.org/
+[drf]: https://www.django-rest-framework.org/
+[httpd]: https://httpd.apache.org/
+[jupyterlab]: https://jupyter.org/
