 It is also important to test the Javascript part of the project. For that we decided on using [Jest](https://jestjs.io/docs/getting-started) (jestjs) as it's easy and simple to use, as well as it's one of the most popular Javascript frameworks for testing the language. The framework is well-documented (just as we wish our project would be) and it also provides some extra statistics for the ones who need it.

 ## CI _Continuous Integration_
 
-If plans go right, nixos Hydra will be used to compile packages, create docker images and also package source code in zip files.  
+Continuous integration allows us to take development to the next with automated building.
-By default the repos (both server and clients) will have a nix flake with `hydraJobs` that describe every step on how to build it.  
+~~Github~~ forgejo actions will be used to compile a docker images of each service then uploaded to the image registry of our own forgejo instance. This can later co-op with _CD_ to automatically deploy to our test servers and later even production.
-If plans go south, as a backup actions will be used for this process.
