Websites

In addition to the main website www.opentorah.org, the project maintains:

• digital edition of Rabbi Wichnin's Chumash Questions book: www.chumashquestions.org;
• archive documents from the early history of Chabad (including the arrests of the Alter Rebbe in 1798 and 1800): www.alter-rebbe.org.

Papers

• paper on Rambam's Laws of the Sanctification of the Moon; goals of the paper:
  • reconstruct models that Rambam uses and their parameters from the Rambam's text;
  • identify misprints in the traditional editions;
  • see how Rambam's calculations of the moon visibility compare to the current models.
• paper describing ideas (dating from 1991) for the dream environment for working with Jewish texts.
• companion paper on typesetting Jewish texts.

Code

• core — Rambam's calculations with dates, time intervals and angles (org.opentorah:opentorah-core);
• texts — Jewish texts and learning schedules (org.opentorah:opentorah-texts).

The www.alter-rebbe.org generator (Collector) and the calendar web application were removed in 0.11.0; for a calendar UI see hebrewcalendar.net.
