Coffee + Code Weekly Meetup: Demo of Edition Crafter

The December 5 session will host a demonsration of Edition Crafter developed by Performant Software. EditionCrafter is an open source tool for publishing digital editions encoded in TEI XML. It is based on code from the digital critical edition “Secrets of Craft and Nature in Renaissance France” published by the Making and Knowing Project at the Center for Science and Society at Columbia University. EditionCrafter can generate sophisticated diplomatic renderings of text side-by-side with a deep zoom window of the original folios. There are also built-in functions for variorums, editorial notes, and glossaries. In this presentation, we will talk about how we created EditionCrafter and demonstrate how to incorporate it into your website.

September 19-December 5, join the Research and Development team for delicious coffee and discussion of interesting digital humanities code work. Zero experience required; these are non-sequential, so come for any or all.
