A workshops ticket is required to attend this session.
CanopyIIIF is a robust, open-source framework that utilizes the International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF) to create interactive, searchable, and customizable digital exhibits or digital scholarship projects. Content-agnostic, CanopyIIIF supports the integration of images, text, audio, and video works to build dynamic experiences with diverse content. It simplifies the process of developing new projects by enabling the remixing and reuse of existing content from external sources. Additionally, CanopyIIIF provides intuitive components that make it easier to add meaningful context, tell compelling stories, and breathe new life into online resources.
In this hands-on workshop, participants will learn to create their very own CanopyIIIF project hosted on GitHub Pages. Attendees will explore how to discover and remix content from a variety of libraries, archives, and museums, as well as how to host their own content from scratch using Tropy and tropyiiify. The workshop will also cover how to design custom pages and create compelling stories using Markdown, MDX, and custom Canopy components. No prior programming experience is necessary, and by the end of the session, participants will have the knowledge and confidence to independently implement a static site powered by CanopyIIIF tailored to their own needs.
