About the project
The purpose of this project is to provide free quality tools for studying the central holy scripture of Islam - the Qur'an. Currently there exists a command-line tool which allows you to browse and search the Qur'an in the console. But don't shy away yet, because this tool also enables you to generate DHTML (HTML + JavaScript) files which will give you the same interactive GUI experience that you already know from full-blown applications. Everything happens in your browser and you don't have to use the dreaded black window with the odd, blinking cursor anymore (although people should really learn it as a different way to operate a computer.) Get started now:
- Download openquran for your operating system.
- Download the Qur'an files you are interested in and extract them into the openquran folder.
- If you're on Windows, start MakeHTML.bat and follow the instructions.
That's it! Open the generated DHTML file in a browser (Firefox and Opera recommended) and enjoy a pretty and powerful Qur'an browser.
