Welcome to Beacon

Beacon is a  WYSIWYG web-based XML editor. This website is used to track its development.

Beacon is aimed at being a generic XML editor. Any XML format that has an ultimate output format like PDF or HTML is a good candidate for a beacon-editable document. Beacon allows the user to edit the output of that XML document and will automatically generate the input corresponding to the output the user sees.
