“Ed is a Jekyll theme designed for textual editors based on minimal computing principles, and focused on legibility, durability, ease and flexibility. Our underlying technology is easy to learn and teach, and can produce beautifully rendered scholarly or reading editions of texts meant to last.”

Ed reduces not only the formats, proprietary software, and infrastructure needed for textual editing but also file sizes (for preservation), bandwidth usage (for access), labour (of markup), learning curves (of scholarship), and features (of interfaces). —J.S.
