2020

Maintenance & upgrades!

We have just released a crucial update for the DMMapp. While nothing visible changed on the website itself, on the back-end of the app it is a whole other story! Without going into too many boring technical details:

Create your own DMMapp!

Yes!  We are delighted to announce that the code makes the DMMapp work is now available for everyone on GitHub! Animated demonstration of the original DMMapp manuscript directory When we developed the new DMMapp, we were of the opinion that the application we created should be reusable: everyone should have the possibility to recreate the DMMapp, or to create a similar app. So, we took what we created, removed most of the Sexy Codicology modifications and links, and release the code on GitHub and as of today, you can create your own project based on the DMMapp! What does this mean? Although Sexy Codicology focuses on digitized medieval manuscripts, there are so many other potential projects that might benefit for an app with a similar structure as the DMMapp:

Happy New Year!

Dear Sexy Codicologists, We would like to wish everyone of you the best for this 2020! At  the same time we would like to thank everyone for their continued support for our projects. We have set some great goals for ourselves and the DMMapp / Sexy Codicology Blog for this year. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for making all of this possible. Let's make this a great year!
