Backend application
The backend application respects the Ruby-on-Rails conventions for MVC applications. It mainly provides a REST-JSON API for the frontend application. It also provides another REST-JSON API, open to the 3rd-party applications, and known as OpenAPI.

Frontend application
The frontend application is historically an Angular.js MVC application. We are moving, step-by-step, to an application based on React.js + Typescript. For now, the main application is still using Angular.js but it uses some React.js components thanks to coatue-oss/react2angular.
