Synchronized Text Comparison in IIIF Viewers for Parallel Editions #28

Description

@brittnylapierre

What is your idea, question, or challenge related to working with digital media tools or IIIF?

A viewer that allows you to connect chapters or passages in various editions or copies of the same text in a printed book or manuscript, for instance in Mirador, so when you scroll or move in one copy, the other copy moves along with it. To allow easier side-by-side comparison of similar copies.

What were you trying to accomplish when your question/challenge/idea arose?

I'm working on a comparison of different copies of a text in Mirador. My work-around solution: create a collage with the books opened at the same chapter, and export the code for later use. Repeat for each chapter.
