Files for the Tasso in Music Project (TMP) website are hosted on github at:
https://github.com/TassoInMusicProject/tasso-website
The website is served through Github pages and uses jekyll to compile the website from the source files.
ATON is a hierarchical data format for storing most metadata for the TMP website, with conversions in and out of JSON. It allows multi-line content as well as comments within the data. Most of the metadata for the website is stored in this format.
Jekyll uses a templating system called liquid to create static content for the website. Dynamic content is created using Handlebars templates. For example the list of works on the page www.tassomusic.org/census are created from the JSON work index using Handlebars to generate HTML content within a user’s web browser.
Variorum is a web interface for displaying textual variants, developed by Raffaele Viglianti at the Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities.
Vega-Lite is a javascript data plotting library that is used on some analysis pages such as for the histograms plots display on the pitch-class analysis page and the publication date analysis page.
Verovio is an SVG music notation renderer developed primarily by Laurent Pugin at the Swiss office of RISM. The humlib library is embedded within verovio and is used to process and analyze the Humdrum scores for the website as well as convert the scores into the MEI format for rendering in verovio.
