Verse & Variance
An open research tool for the Book of Mormon's textual history. Eight published editions are diffed at the character level, classified, and surfaced as charts you can filter by change type.
The pipeline imports BYU's word-aligned TSVs, reconciles edition references against the modern 1879+ chapter/verse scheme, and writes 16,566 verse-level deltas with categorical labels.
The analytics surface is a small set of typed React components reading from Postgres views — stacked bars, treemaps, and a KJV vocabulary comparison — all linkable down to the underlying verse pair.
