🪞Setting up a dedicated GitHub Pages repository for a temporary CODH-tool mirror — including the missing kuromoji dictionary in Soan
While the ROIS-DS Center for Open Data in the Humanities (CODH) website is down for long-term maintenance (notice issued 2026-02-24, no announced reopen date), I restored several CODH tools (vdiff.js / IIIF Curation Viewer / Soan / etc.) from the Wayback Machine and similar sources and published them as a standalone GitHub Pages repository (codh-mirror). This post covers the setup procedure and the gotchas I hit (notably the missing kuromoji dictionary for Soan). Strictly a temporary measure until CODH service resumes.
