TEI Lite

TEI Lite is a simplified version of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI), a standard used to digitally represent and organize texts, especially for scholarly work. Think of it as a set of guidelines that helps researchers mark up documents to show their structure, such as chapters, paragraphs, or special features like footnotes. TEI Lite offers essential tools for encoding texts without the complexities of the full standard, making it easier and faster for users to prepare digital texts for analysis, preservation, or digital presentation while maintaining clarity and consistency.
