The Open Editions project publishes richly annotated open source literary texts. We aim to aggregate the literary knowledge that surrounds a text, codify that knowledge, and integrate it into the text. Read our draft article for James Joyce Quarterly where we discuss the project and its preliminary goals.
This is the master repository for the Open Editions website, Open-Editions.org. The issues here represent meta-todo items for all texts.
For technical documentation, including the specification for an Open Edition, please see http://open-editions.org/docs
The issues pages of the text repositories (see the list at http://github.com/open-editions) are the best place to see the most recently updated status of each text and text feature. But here’s a table, for convenience:
| Text | Ulysses | Portrait of the Artist | Dubliners | Finnegans Wake | Middlemarch |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

This website, http://open-editions.org, is built from markdown, using Rib, Shake, and other Haskell tools. To build it, make sure you have Nix installed, and then run:
nix-shell --run 'ghcid -T ":main generate"' Or to build it and watch the directory for changes, just remove generate.
Most of the layout is in Main.hs. Edition metadata is in Editions.hs, for now.
