+Docker-Image for the Jupyter-Cluster
+====================================
+
+The project must have two tags. One tag is called *test* and refers to a development branch. The second tag is called *prod*, which refers to the branch for the production system.
+
+In this repo, prod is derived from main and test from develop, so 
+
+- main --> prod
+- develop --> test
+
+The tags are referenced by the Jupyter cluster.
+
