About this Project
This is a project to create a digital version of the scriptures of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Esperanto. The project is a work in progress and is not officially affiliated with the Church. The Book of Mormon text is taken from the official Church publications. The selected chapters translation is the primary source of the text.
The Bible text is taken from the github repository of thiagobodruk. I have made some modifications to the text to convert it from the x-system to the proper Esperanto alphabet. I cannot guarantee the accuracy of the text, but I have done my best to make it as accurate as possible.
The hymn texts are taken from the archived website of christian hymns found at https://www.oocities.org/cigneto/.
The project is built using Next.js and is hosted on Vercel. The scriptures are stored in JSON files and are converted to HTML using Next.js. I am also working on an API to allow other developers to access the data. The API is currently in development and is not considered stable, but you play around with it at the API page.
Future Goals
Here are some of the future goals for the project in no particular order:
- Add internationalization to the Non-scripture pages (namely this page and the api page)
- Improve the API to make it more stable and user-friendly
- Improve the design and layout of the site
- Add the remaining translations
- Improve the translations
- Add more known hymn translations
The project is open source and the code can be found on GitHub. If you would like to contribute to the project, please feel free to do so. I am also open to any suggestions or feedback you may have.
