I'm a software developer working in the past 20+ years for Syncrosoft, the company which develops Oxygen XML Editor/Author/Developer.
I worked a lot on the support in Oxygen XML for visually editing XML documents using CSS for styling, change tracking, DITA XML editing, custom actions and side views like the DITA Maps Manager view. I've also worked to develop the APIs which can be used to develop plugins for Oxygen or to customize advanced framework support. Recently I worked a bit also on the WebAuthor online editing tool (DITA Map tree editor) and Content Fusion (Workspace Search support and support to update references when files are renamed/moved). Currently I'm working on developing AI-based tools for editing DITA XML content with Oxygen.
I do lots of technical support for the features I worked on in Oxygen, visual editing customizations, questions related to the APIs used to build plugins, framework customization questions and in general DITA XML based publishing questions. The channels where you can find me are:
- The Oxygen XML support email address: https://www.oxygenxml.com/contact.html
- The Oxygen XML Forum: https://www.oxygenxml.com/forum/
- DITA Users List: https://dita-users.groups.io/g/main
- Stack Overflow: https://stackoverflow.com/
I also write articles and generally maintain the Oxygen XML Blog: https://blog.oxygenxml.com/
I contribute small bug fixes, ideas and suggestions to the DITA Open Toolkit project: https://www.dita-ot.org/who_we_are
During these years I've developed quite a few open source project on the Oxygen XML GitHub organization, most of them plugins for the DITA Open Toolkit: https://github.com/search?q=topic%3Adita-ot-plugin+org%3Aoxygenxml&type=Repositories Some of the most useful plugins include the plugins to add support for Latex equation and PlantUML/Mermaid diagrams in DITA XML content.
I enjoy reading, a list with some of the books I've read: https://github.com/raducoravu/raducoravu/blob/main/books.md
