Computational tools for Language Documentation

As a linguistic fieldworker, the lack of technologically advanced language documentation tools is quite apparent to me. I am working to fill this gap by creating online database structures useful for my own work, but also available to other linguists. For example, I co-developed an application with a software engineer, a novel online, searchable, data-entry site called TwistedTongues, which I use to maintain the Guébie (Kru) corpus, and as a database tool in Field Methods courses. TwistedTongues is available for use to anyone, and a manual is available here. I have also created a readable, searchable, publicly available database of Moro (Kordofanian), which is used by community members and linguists alike. The Moro database code is available on GitHub.
