Keeping an open-source project alive is like gardening your plants - you'll need to give the project water and space to grow, but you must also make sure to provide the soil with some needed nutrients now and then. Furthermore plant must be kept healthy by removing obstacles like dead leaves or rearranging the position of some parts. Finally, it needs the proper exposure to the sun.

In Edlib, all this takes place over time. Over the last months, we've been working continuously with gardening by removing dead or overcomplicated code. Such gardening makes room for adding new code in a healthier and more tidy environment. You can follow this work in detail, by visiting our release overview page.

We are delighted to see a new leaf grow out of Edlib as we have received language attributions in terms of translations for Content Author - which now supports Korean (ko) language! 어서 오십시오!

We hope that many more will follow and submit translations in their langauge. Read more about translating Edlib and submit you translations today! Contact us if you have any questions.

We have also worked with improving documentation and examples on the "Edlib Docs" and you can now read all about how NDLA use Edlib.

If you have any questions, don't be afraid to contact us!

All the best

It's a proud moment for the Cerpus Edlib team to finally be able to present Edlib as not only a "hub" for open educational resources but also as a complete open-source project. We are thrilled to show the world some of the things we have been working on for the last 6 years.

As the main authoring platform for Gamilab and Edstep, Edlib is really the fundamental backbone of educational content management and has given birth to thousands of new educational resources.

Even if Edlib in its current form is only a mature six-year-old, the seed was planted more than a decade ago and carefully nurtured and shaped into what it is today by Tommy W. Nordeng who will forever be its spiritual progenitor.

In addition to Tommy's vision, Edlib has been developed in close collaboration with NDLA, the Norwegian Digital Learning Arena, who has both inspired us and contributed in the form of tireless feedback and numerous feature requests all of which were required to create truly engaging H5P-based content for their award-winning open educational resources platform, NDLA.no.

Although a lot more needs to be done with regards to open-sourcing Edlib, the work has started and so has our journey on an even more inspiring path: to become one of the leading educational open source companies in Norway and beyond.
