This repository holds the re-write and working implementation of the interface and code for reconstructing Proto-Burmese, as found here:
Xun Gong, & Nathan Hill. (2020). Materials for an Etymological Dictionary of Burmish. Zenodo. https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4311182
To run while developing (with Python 3), follow these steps: (Untested on Windows, works fine on Mac and Linux)
docker-compose up --build
Open a new terminal, then run Caddy to connect the interface and API.
caddy run --config Caddyfile.dev
# opens interface at specified port (5002 by default)
For much more in-depth instructions, see SETUP.md.
For usage instructions, see USAGE.md.
