What is CollaLex Dashboard?
The CollaLex Dashboard allows the project members to work, much as they would with desktop dictionary software, on the creation and editing of their dictionary. It is the central feature of the CollaLex platform.
Basically, it's where the work is done.
The CollaLex Dashboard is all the software a project needs to create, edit, and finalize their dictionary. It can be used by a single linguist, as is the case for many dictionary projects, but it can also be used — and this is the beauty of it — by any number of contributors who have login access to the Dashboard. (This login access can be tiered according to how much “editing ability” each contributor should have.)
Instead of the data for the dictionary being stored on various computers, it is stored and edited, through CollaLex Dashboard, on a central server.
The dictionary can then be exported for use on another medium or platform, such as a PDF, to Webonary, to SIL's Fieldworks, or even to printed worksheets for manual editing.
