Coko

Coko is a community-driven project that aims to create open-source publishing tools for research communication. It focuses on improving the workflows and tools used by publishers, editors, and authors in the scholarly publishing process.

Coko is a collaboration between the Collaborative Knowledge Foundation (CoKo) and several other organizations, including the California Digital Library, the European Bioinformatics Institute, and the University of California Press. The community is made up of developers, researchers, publishers, and other stakeholders in the publishing industry.

Coko has developed several projects, including Editoria, which is a web-based platform for creating and publishing books, and PubSweet, which is a framework for building customizable publishing platforms. Other notable projects include Wax, an open-source web-based word processor, and INK, an annotation and feedback platform.

Yes, Coko is committed to open-source development. All of their projects are released under an open-source license, meaning that anyone can use, modify, and distribute the software freely. This allows for collaboration and innovation within the publishing community.
