@mathaetaes @bridget I know OP was joking, but since the question came up: you can run different apps using a shared Electron runtime. In fact, on Arch Linux many Electron apps are bundled like this today and when packaged with Flatpak on Linux it also works that way. It is unfortunate that the standard tooling has not adopted this strategy.
like the fact that LLMs "really can" do some parts of programming reads to me not as a demonstration of their economic utility but as a brutal indictment of our tools *for* programming. it feels productive to have these things emit mountains of boilerplate because *we constantly need mountains of boilerplate* and gosh I wish we could address that problem

It is done! 🚀 Today I’m publishing the first full, formal open source release of liiive — my web-based, real-time collaborative annotation environment for #IIIF image collections.

liiive enables users to view and annotate IIIF images together in real time — with shared cursors, synchronized drawing tools, and exportable, standards-compatible annotations.

As of today, the repository contains everything you need to run your own fully self-hosted instance:

https://github.com/rsimon/liiive

A big thank you to the University of Graz Department of Digital Humanities and the DHInfra.at initiative — this release wouldn’t have been possible without their support.

And now? it’s up to you!

Clone the repo. Deploy your own instance. Start annotating.

Most importantly: tell us how it goes. If something breaks, open an issue on GitHub. If something feels unclear, confusing, or slow — we want to know. Your feedback will shape where liiive goes next.

Ocular Update!

- Mobile support
- Better navigation
- New logo

@hawkinsw thanks for the kind words! jekyll-scholar has been in maintenance mode for years, so there's not a lot to do there. Everyone's welcome to pitch in though, so feel free to reach out if something comes up or you find something missing.

@schaffertom der Inhalt ist ja frei konfigurierbar? Speziell die Sponsored shortcuts sind vermutlich einfach käuflich.
