This video tutorial shows one of multiple ways how you can use WebLicht. WebLicht is a web application provided by CLARIN-D that allows you to build toolchains for linguistic annotations on different layers like Morphology, Syntax or Named Entity Recognition.

To get started you have to log in via your CLARIN- or any other university affiliation account. After clicking the Start-Button and selecting Easy Mode which supplies you with a pre-defined toolchain, you can either analyze text that you directly type in or copy-paste to the corresponding window, use a sample text provided by WebLicht or upload a text file. Now you can select your preferred layer of annotation and hit run to get a detailed analysis for the selection you have made. It is then possible to download the complete file or parts of it as .csv or .xml.
