 ## Frontend dependencies
 
-These aren't checked in, until the preferred method of dependency management is decided. Until then, they can be
-downloaded from the following locations:
-
-* [jQuery](https://jquery.com/download/)
-* [Bootstrap](https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/getting-started/download/)
-* [Popper.js](https://github.com/FezVrasta/popper.js#installation)
-* [Highlight.js](https://highlightjs.org/download/)
-* [Showdown](https://github.com/showdownjs/showdown/releases)
-* [ace](https://github.com/ajaxorg/ace-builds/releases)
+Open up a terminal in `src/app/static`. Issue `yarn install` to install dependencies and `webpack` to compile the
+frontend source.
