TEI by Example offers a series of freely available online tutorials walking individuals through the different stages in marking up a document in TEI (Text Encoding Initiative). Besides a general introduction to text encoding, step-by-step tutorial modules provide example-based introductions to eight different aspects of electronic text markup for the humanities. Each tutorial module is accompanied with a dedicated examples section, illustrating actual TEI encoding practise with real-life examples. The theory of the tutorial modules can be tested in interactive tests and exercises.

 en-GB release creation Module 8: Customising TEI, ODD, Roma

For a TEI project involving a critical edition of Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot, create a TEI customisation with the Roma application.

Starting from a minimal TEI schema, create a customisation called myGodot. Include the drama, textcrit, and transcr modules. Remove the facsimile, surface, and zone elements from the transcr module. Save your customisation. Create PDF documentation for your project team.
