 The Web frontend is the second main interface for most users. This frontend has the
 particularity to be in 2 parts: a server which serves HTTP content, and a client which
-runs in the browser. So you have Libervia server which connect to Libervia backend which itself
-connect to the XMPP server, and your browser will connect to Libervia server.

+connect to the XMPP server, and your browser will connect to Libervia Web server.
 
-In the browser, you can access the server in two ways: either directly with what we call
-**Libervia pages**, or with a JavaScript code in `single-page application`_ which is the
-**Libervia client** (or **Libervia web app**) that we have mentioned above.
-
-The **Libervia pages** are web pages managing a single feature. They can work without
-JavaScript when it's possible (it's not the case for instant messaging or similar highly
-dynamic contents). They aims to be simple and straightforward to use.

-Last but not least, Libervia is also the central part of the new **web framework** of

-this framework), you can create totally different websites which are integrated in Libervia
-(and so XMPP) ecosystem. This framework uses Libervia template engine (based on `Jinja2`_) and
-makes the creation of decentralised and federated websites simple. Thanks to this framework,
-it's easy to experiment new ideas/features, or to change completely the look and feel of
-the Libervia frontend.
