General information
#########################################

The application itself is entirely web-based.
It does not (natively) contain a backend component.
The backend rather is a prepared triple store containing a knowledge graph adhering to the `GerPS ontology family <https://w3id.org/gerps/ontology/>`_. The ontology focused on process description `GerPS-Process <https://w3id.org/gerps/ontology/process/>`_ relies on storing BPMN files on an additional fileserver.


#########################################
Configuration
#########################################

The SPARQL endpoint of the triple store and the used fileserver is configured at build time through the `/bsrap-app/.env` parameters.
