SPANISH Feminist Linguistics Repository

This is a digital archive for language professionals, scholars, activists, and the general audience. It was born as a response to problems we identify at Indisciplinadxs: Feminist Linguistics

To implemented this repository, I assembled a Raspberry Pi and used it as a server to host the Repository. In terms of software, I chose DSpace, a popular open-source software for information repositories. To install it, I was required to learn not only about DSpace, but also about Apache, Tomcat, Angular, databases, networking, Bootstrap, remote access on SSH protocol, and setting ports to be accessed by external users in an environment such as DSpace. Across this process I had the guidance of the engineer Eduardo Reyes Delgado.

In the second phase, Natalia Villarroel Torres became my partner. Currently, we are working on a controlled language for feminist linguistics. We also lead the repository, including topics such as policies and curating materials.
