Session outline

In this session we will introduce the process of publishing XML editions to a web publication, using the example of TEI EpiDoc XML files and the EFES publication platform (EpiDoc Front-End Services). We will give a hands-on demo of opening, viewing individual inscriptions, and generating default indexes and search interface in EFES, and then show a couple of projects that have customized EFES for their own requirement.

In preparation for this session you should download (or clone) the EFES EpiDoc publication platform from Github, and follow the basic instructions to run the "build" file and view the front page in a browser. The rest will be explained in the session.
