But it's more than that, it was born for my Web Tecnologies course at the University of Bologna, and as that has some specialities.

First of all it doesn't have a memory for all the data its shows! Everything is fetched from others website APIs and merged together to show a uniform presentation.

services from wich PhysicsNobel takes data

This reflect new structure of the web where knowledge is stored only in one place (more precisely in only at one URI) and is shared between services.

Indeed PhysicsNobel offer a RESTful interface at /api/ URI to other external services.

Physics Nobel embraces semantic web (where URIs lead not only to documents) using Wikidata and quering them with SPARQL queries.

I tried to use some cutting edge tecnologies at the time of major developing (2017) using libraries, frameworks and tools like React, Webpack and Django.
