<span class="mano"><MANO> - Manuscripts Online</span> is a collaborative digital platform designed to support
teaching and research in manuscript studies. It combines simple tools and open infrastructures to make
historical sources more accessible, shareable, and reusable.
</p>
<p>
The platform provides:
</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Resources</strong> - a shared repository of learning materials freely available for students and educators.</li>
<li><strong>Metadata Editor</strong> - a simple tool for creating standardized manuscript descriptions in XML and JSON format.</li>
<li><strong>Metadata Collection</strong> - a searchable interface of manuscript records contributed by the community.</li>
<li><strong>Transcription Viewer</strong> - a viewer for exploring manuscript transcriptions.</li>
</ul>
<p>
The idea behind <MANO> is to offer an open, collaborative, and easy-to-maintain solution for digital studies.
It runs entirely on GitHub Pages, without complex servers or databases, ensuring sustainability for small projects and
individual researchers.
</p>
<p>
The concept of the platform originated from the author's need to provide students of a workshop with practical digital tools to understand the workflow used in the project
<a href="https://burchards-dekret-digital.de/" target="_blank">Burchards Dekret Digital</a>, where she has been working since 2021.
What initially started as a simple idea to create an online tool for describing manuscripts in XML-TEI, gradually evolved into a broader platform. The goal became to make it as accessible and reusable as possible, beyond a single course or project. As a result, the original manuscript description tool has grown into a complete teaching and research platform for manuscript studies.
</p>
<p class="fw-bold text-center">
Every contribution helps expand this shared resource and supports
the community of students and researchers working on manuscripts.
