Learning to Use Manakin

File: PDF
Author/Presenter:
Scott Phillips
Location: DSUG 2007
Summary: Do you want to get started using the DSpace Manakin user interface? Manakin is a new web-based user interface for DSpace using a themeable design. This means that individual DSpace collections can have customized interfaces that adapt their look-and-feel to the particular needs of the repository. In this presentation you will learn how to use the Manakin's interface framework to create a customized interface at your institution. We will start with an introduction to Manakin and it's architecture, then the first two tiers of Manakin Theme development will be discussed - using a walk-through approach. Finally, we'll get a brief introduction to XSLT, and discuss how XSLT templates can be used to modify the Manakin interface. These topics will give you the tools you need to start developing a Manakin theme for your institution.
