            Apache Annotator provides annotation enabling code for browsers, servers, and humans.
          </h3>

          <p>
            Growing out of the experiences with web annotation software (<a href="https://annotatorjs.org">Annotator.js</a>, <a href="https://hypothes.is">Hypothes.is</a>, and others), Apache Annotator is a collaboration between developers of annotation tools to bundle our efforts.
          </p>
          <p>
            The goal is to help developers of annotation tools create their applications without having to reinvent the wheel, while applying a standards-driven approach based on the W3C’s <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/annotation-model/">Web Annotation data model</a>, in order to facilitate an ecosystem of interoperable annotation tools — ideally making annotations an integral part of the web.
          </p>
          <p>
          We are currently working on a basic set of modules for core tasks such as anchoring annotations to their targets. We welcome developers and community members interested in the future of annotation. Please reach out on <a href="https://lists.apache.org/list.html?dev@annotator.apache.org">our mailing list</a> or join us on one of our weekly calls! We'd love to have your input and help.
          </p>
