jQuery Annotator - A Web Annotation System Which Provides The User With Tools To Annotate Text

jQuery Annotator is a web annotation system. Loaded into a webpage, it provides the user with tools to annotate text (and other elements) in the page.  The Annotator project also has a simple but powerful plugin architecture. While the core annotator code does the bare minimum, it is easily extended with plugins that perform such tasks as:

• serialization: the Store plugin saves all your annotations to a REST API backend (see Storage wiki page for more and a link to a reference implementation)
• authentication and authorization: the Auth and Permissions plugins allow you to decouple the storage of your annotations from the website on which the annotation happens. In practice, this means that users could edit pages across the web, with all their annotations being saved to one server.
• prettification: the Markdown plugin renders all annotation text as Markdown
• tagging: the Tags plugin allows you to tag individual annotations
