This tutorial was developed by Wout Dillen and Joshua Schäuble at the Centre for Manuscript Genetics (CMG), as part of the IIIF courses of the University of Antwerp‘s Summer School on Digital Humanities. This is a one-week summer school organized by the Antwerp Centre for Digital humanities and literary Criticism (ACDC).

The course was first taught in Antwerp in 2018 (3-7 September), and an adapted version was taught again in 2019 (1-5 July). In the course, students learn how to set up a IIIF-compatible image server (iipimage) on a local network of Raspberry Pi computers, to ultimately re-use and manipulate each other’s images using the IIIF protocol.
