Minimal Digital is an introductory toolkit compiled by Alison Harvey as part of an AHRC-RLUK Professional Practice Fellowship Scheme project to research, trial, and review free and simple tools for getting started with digital storytelling, digital archives, and digital exhibitions.
The tools reviewed on this site are all free to use, and based on minimal computing. They don't require web-hosting, or access to a server. They can be used by anyone, anywhere, to support self-development, teaching, research, and creativity. The toolkit is intended to introduce these tools in an accessible, jargon-free way. Many are underpinned by a technical framework known as IIIF.
