DMMapp Updates

DMMapp - New major update on the way!

We are excited to reveal that the Sexy Codicology team has been hard at work on a new, major update for the DMMapp. In the past months we have worked hard on many aspects of the application with the goal to improve its usefulness, especially for researchers. Some of the cool new features include:

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! 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:

DMMapp March Update

Thanks to the many reports we have received over the past couple of months we are happy to announce that the DMMapp is approching the end of its "Beta". Planned for the end of the month!

DMMapp 4.0: Open Beta ending soon, release planned!

In over two months you have helped us spotting quite some bugs on our new DMMapp, and now we believe that the time has come to embrace the future and archive the old DMMapp completely. An what better period to do so if not early in the new year?

DMMapp 4.0 is on the way!

Yes! There is more on the way for what concerns the DMMapp. As you might know, we have recently given you the possibility to report broken links in our DMMapp. We are happy to communicate that it has been a great success, and its working better than expected. A big thank you for all those who have reported an issue with the links! Now, this has been a great improvement for everyone; but it has lead to a new problem for the micro-team behind Sexy Codicology: Links break all the time, and we want all the links fixed, so: how can we update the data on the DMMapp, in a timely and efficient manner?
