+====== For app developers ======
+Here are some notes and suggestions for developers building apps that utilize CC-CEDICT
+==== Substitute or link to references when possible ====
+Many CC-CEDICT entries contain references to other Chinese words, some of which are also in CC-CEDICT. References that also exist in CC-CEDICT should be displayed with the referencing entry for ease of use for the user.
+For example, if a user was looking up 麟 in your application, they may see
+<code>
+麟 麟 [[lin2]] /see 麒麟[qi2lin2]/
+</code>
+which means they must make an additional search for 麒麟, at which point they would see the actual definition
+<code>
+麒麟 麒麟 [[qi2lin2]] /(Chinese mythology) qilin/(old) giraffe/
+</code>
+We recommend displaying all referenced entries alongside the the referencing entry, or in some cases, outright substituting the referenced definition in.
+See [[references|]] for more information
