Wed

Synopsis
Wed is a schema-aware editor for XML documents. It runs in a web browser. It is being used in a project for editing scholarly articles. We aim to make it extensible by means of a stable API.

Features

 * Supports RNG schemas.
 * Validates during editing.
 * Provides guided editing on the basis of the schema used. The user can use a contextual menu to insert new elements or attributes and only the elements or attributes that are valid in the location of the caret are presented.
 * Can represent XML structures in a way that is closer to XML (i.e. show where the start and end tags are located) or in a stylistic way (e.g. section headings in bold) in the same view.
