This is a standalone version of the collation editor. It works with the local file system on your computer. A small example of a single Greek verse is included as a sample file.
The collation editor is a GUI wrapper around collateX. A version of that software is included with this editor.
The collation editor requires Python3. It should work with python 3.10 - 3.13.
The version of collateX packaged with this code requires Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 8 or higher.
The collation editor has primarily been tested in Firefox but should also work in Chrome and Edge.
Either clone the repository to your local machine or download the zipped file and unzip it. If you decide not to use the default directory name of standalone_collation_editor when either cloning or unzipping, then please ensure there are no spaces in the name you choose instead.
By default the collation editor runs on port 8080. If you need to change the port number, you can edit the last line of the bottle_server.py file to refer to the port you wish to use.
