#QualCoder #open #qualitative #research #curriculum is now available in beta at https://ndporter.github.io/open-qualitative-research-qualcoder/. If you use it, or have suggestions to improve, please mesage me here or open an issue on GitHub.#cc-by
Just enjoyed a middle of the night chat (Frankfurt timezone perspective) with the developer of #QualCoder core developer (from the other side of the globe) to discuss a small bug I found. The best #OpenSource #CAQDAS I am aware of for #Coding, #Transcription and more
@realsimon – Has anyone tried #QualCoder? It is billed as a open alternative to #MaxQDA and runs on both #Windows and #Linux. See here: https://github.com/ccbogel/QualCoder/wiki
I'd be curious to hear how people like it. Not into qualitative analysis myself (except for the occasional #TEI encoding), but people around me encounter similar issues with #MaxQDA.
@Ch_Hogberg @DrSundarb my policy in teaching my #Anthropology #STS #Sociology students @KAEEGoetheUni is to only introduce #OpenSource software (and learn to move my own data practices into such infrastructure). In short, for #qdas check out #QualCoder at https://qualcoder.wordpress.com/
Amazing morning, just learned I can intensify my engagement with the #qdas #qualitative #data #analysis software #QualCoder via a direct chat with its developer this week to solve some frictions.
On that note, I look so much forward to seeing how my students @KAEEGoetheUni will engage with, make use of, this software over the next months.
I like it because it is #OpenSource, #free, and available across various platforms.

I love the developer of #QualCoder, an #OpenSource #QualitativeDataAnalysis #software! They are really swift in reacting on github on issues and suggestions for enhancing the software. @sociology @sts @anthropology

University computer's default system successfully set to #Fedora #Linux; installed #QualCoder, #Zotero and #JabRef for my research and teaching.
Away with Windows and the proprietary software suggested by the university...
Now back to planning courses
@anders Yes, I used #RQDA in some smaller projects. It was very basic, but functional. RQDA is not maintained anymore and has been removed from #Rstats #CRAN.
#QualCoder is inspired by RQDA, but - as far as I know - has no R integration.
#QCoder is a fairly new R package for "lightweight" qualitative analysis. It uses #Shiny for the UI.
Two new reviews of #opensource computer-assisted #QualitativeDataAnalysis software (#QDA #CAQDAS):
• In the first review, @VickyRampin presents #QualCoder, #QCoder, and #Taguette in a Webinar:

• The second review by #Jess_Hagman is an article comparing #CATMA, #QualCoder, and #Taguette, as well as the free-to-use but non-#FLOSS programs #QCAMap, #QDAMiner:

- #RQDA, an #RStats package which was unfortunately kicked out of CRAN a while ago, so hard to install. Seems to depend on one person.
- #Taguette, lovely browser-based tool, actively developed.
- #Qualcoder, promising Python-based tool, actively developed but installation barrier too high for now.
- #CATMA, browser-based as well, with more features than others, but I found the interface hard to grasp. Has institutional backing.
Do you know of other notable Open Source QDA tools?

....and which made #openscience possible: @JabRef_org@twitter.com #qualcoder @ccbogel1@twitter.com @Nextclouders@twitter.com @AtomEditor@twitter.com @TexmakerEditor@twitter.com #easytranscript and many more (see acknowledgements).
Still masters thesis. Thanks a lot unknown developers for building the #opensource tools I'm using: @JabRef_org@twitter.com @AtomEditor@twitter.com @TexmakerEditor@twitter.com #qualcoder (https://github.com/ccbogel/QualCoder) #easytranscript (https://www.e-werkzeug.eu/index.php/de/produkte/easytranscript) @Nextclouders@twitter.com and many more running on #archlinux
Computer-assisted #QualitativeDataAnalysis Software (#QDA #CAQDAS) is great for text interpretation and #contentanalysis. Besides proprietary software #MaxQDA, #NVivo, #AtlasTi, there are great #crossplatform #opensource packages:
