You are free to extend the Cuirass web API to suit your application’s
needs. Having a standalone site is a valid way of providing a web
interface, but it doesn’t have to be the only way of accessing the
information.
Even if you go for the first route, the HTML you serve could talk to the
API. These two options don’t have to be mutually exclusive.
FWIW, I expect the first approach to be easier because you can use
Scheme for the most part; the pages it serves could be progressively
enhanced with JavaScript, if the client supports it. I’m sure there are
many users who would prefer a system that would work fine even without
running JavaScript in the browser.

I forgot how we did this for past GSoC, but my preference is to do this
in a separate branch of the Cuirass git repository. Do you have an
account on Savannah yet? Once you do we could give you permissions to
push your work to a separate branch on the repository.
(You are free to host the code elsewhere as long as we have read
access via git.)
