+One of our most pressing and ever-evolving needs as scholars is to pass on our textual artifacts
 from one generation to another. The art of textual editing, among other practices, has helped many
 cultures to remember and interpret for centuries. Alas, that art is practiced and encouraged in its
 highest form by a dwindling number of scholars. In a digital environment the problem is compounded

 online scene yearly, very few manifest a textual scholar's disciplined attention to detail. In
 contrast, most textual scholars who have made the leap to a rigorous digital practice have focused
 on markup, relying on technical teams to deploy and maintain their work. This makes your average
-scholarly digital edition a very costly, and therefore limited affair.

 As we see it, a minimal edition is one that aims to reduce the size and complexity of the back and

-beautiful editions with less effort, that it can help us teach a 'full stack' in one academic
