 We have multiple repositories under the hood that comprise the website. Take a look at the contributing guidelines in the repository you want to contribute to.
 
-- [**`algorithm-visualizer`**](https://github.com/algorithm-visualizer/algorithm-visualizer) is a web app written in React. It not only contains UI components but also interprets visualizing commands into actual visualizations. Check out [the contributing guidelines](CONTRIBUTING.md).

 - [**`server`**](https://github.com/algorithm-visualizer/server) serves the web app and provides APIs that it needs on the fly. (e.g., GitHub sign in, compiling/running code, etc.)
 
-- [**`algorithms`**](https://github.com/algorithm-visualizer/algorithms) contains algorithm visualizations shown on the side menu of the website.
