 ## Development

+**higlass-python** is primarily a Python project, but it includes JavaScript for
+the anywidget-based front-end code (`src/higlass/widget.js`). We use
+[uv](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv) for Python development and
+[deno](https://github.com/denoland/deno) for linting and type-checking
+JavaScript.
+
+All formatting, linting, and tests are enforced in CI.
 
 ### Commands Cheatsheet
