Rerum Playground

This is a web space that uses the RERUM installation at the Walter J. Ong, _^S.J. Center for Digital Humanities to explore the possibilities of interoperable tools and standards. By using the Tiny Things sandbox, users can immediately create reusable JSON-LD objects that conform to IIIF and Web Annotation standards and find new ways to interact with them.

RERUM Playground is a web-based toolset enabling users to work with IIIF manifests and JSON-LD objects. Users can bring their own manifest or create one within the playground, then use the listed tools to visualize, edit, and redirect the manifest to other compatible applications.
