# Architecture
This is a summary of the architecture of Linkwarden. It's intended as a primer for collaborators to get a high-level understanding of the project.
When you start Linkwarden, there are mainly two components that run:
- The NextJS app, This is the main app and it's responsible for serving the frontend and handling the API routes.
- [The Background Worker](https://github.com/linkwarden/linkwarden/blob/main/scripts/worker.ts), This is a separate `ts-node` process that runs in the background and is responsible for archiving links.
## Main Tech Stack
- [NextJS](https://github.com/vercel/next.js)
