Hi Richard, Welcome to the Arches community. Good question concerning the learning curve for web developers. A moderately experienced developer should have no problem working with Arches’ default architecture and front-end web application. Arches back-end is also based on modern, standard tec

Hi Eloise, Yes, you can load your own data into Arches. The Installation manual has a pretty thorough explanation of how to do this. Did you already try following the steps? Also, you should know that v2.0 of Arches was released recently. If you are using the VM option, then you're probably

Thomas, Good question! You are quite correct that we haven't tried to include uncertainty in Arches. One reason is pretty basic: certainty is quite subjective from person to person. For example: most people agree that the earth is spherical. But a "flat-earther" may be very certain that the

All Leanpub does is read Markdown files. There's nothing stopping us from making the Markdown files publicly available, thereby allowing anyone to access and edit. The arches project website might be a good place to allow people access to the files. Of course, there will need to be some kind
