Libraries

The Universal Data Tool is always looking for the best libraries to provide the user interface for different types of annotation. Currently, the following libraries are used...

• material-survey for data entry.
• react-image-annotate for image annotation.
• react-nlp-annotate for entity recognition and NLP tasks.
