Current status of the Open Siddur client

[Efraim Feinstein]

I realized that I haven't updated the list in a while about progress on the Open Siddur client application, which runs at http://app.opensiddur.org .

The current version is 0.1.12. In the last few releases, a few new features were added (including enhancements to the outline view) and a number of usability issues were fixed. Recently, I've been dogfooding the app on one of my favorite example texts, a Haggadah <http://app.opensiddur.org/outlines/%D7%A1%D7%93%D7%A8%20%D7%94%D7%94%D7%92%D7%93%D7%94%20%D7%9C%D7%9C%D7%99%D7%9C%20%D7%A9%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%A8%D7%99%D7%9D-%20%D7%9E%D7%93%D7%95%D7%99%D7%A7%20%D7%94%D7%99%D7%98%D7%99%D7%91%20%D7%95%D7%9E%D7%A1%D7%95%D7%93%D7%A8%20%D7%99%D7%A4%D7%94>.  I have been able to enter everything that is present exclusively using the app.<http://app.opensiddur.org/compiled/%D7%A1%D7%93%D7%A8%20%D7%94%D7%94%D7%92%D7%93%D7%94%20%D7%9C%D7%9C%D7%99%D7%9C%20%D7%A9%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%A8%D7%99%D7%9D-%20%D7%9E%D7%93%D7%95%D7%99%D7%A7%20%D7%94%D7%99%D7%98%D7%99%D7%91%20%D7%95%D7%9E%D7%A1%D7%95%D7%93%D7%A8%20%D7%99%D7%A4%D7%94> 

There are still some outstanding things that the app doesn't do or doesn't do well. Major examples are that the UI for entering conditional application of texts is incomplete and the outline view does not yet handle translations.

Some parts are ready for use by anyone interested, particularly anyone interested in testing the process for addition and editing of texts. 

Happy Hanukkah,
