Flamenco Search

Flamenco Search is a downloadable web-based interface from the UC Berkley School of Information based in Python, designed to run on a server. It streamlines the browsing of large collections. It is particularly valuable for items such as documents or images, enabling website visitors to explore content via a hierarchy of categories and subcategories called facets. Users can assign keywords and metadata which is then used to guide site visitors to the choices that best meet their interests, while allowing them to refine or expand their query and remain oriented in relation to the rest of the collection.

Versioning Machine

The Versioning Machine, now in version 4.0, is a framework and an interface for displaying multiple versions of text, and encodes the text according to TEI guidelines. It incorporates features found in both critical editions and electronic publication, in addition to providing an environment for textual editors to comparatively view the results of their edits. This tool may be downloaded for use on a local machine, or hosted on one's server for web usage.
