# Developing Browsertrix Cloud
|
|
|
|
Browsertrix Cloud consists of a Python-based backend and TypeScript-based frontend.
|
|
|
|
To develop Browsertrix Cloud, the system must [first be deployed locally](../deploy/local.md) in a Kubernetes cluster.
|
|
|
|
The deployment can then be [further customized for local development](./local-dev-setup.md).
|
|
|
|
### Backend
|
|
|
|
The backend is an API-only system, using the FastAPI framework. The latest API reference is available under ./api of a running cluster.
|
|
|
|
At this time, the backend must be deployed in the Kubernetes cluster.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Frontend
|
|
|
|
The frontend UI is implemented in TypeScript, using the Lit framework and Shoelace component library.
|
|
|
|
The static build of the frontend is bundled with nginx, but the frontend can be deployed locally in dev mode against an existing backend.
|
|
|
|
See [Running Frontend](./frontend-dev) for more details.
