'''Xanadoc''' is one of the instantiations of the abstract concept of hyptertext documents envisioned by Ted Nelson in conjunction with his [[Project Xanadu]]. It is based on World Wide [[Web]] technology (despite Nelson's general dislike of the Web for not implementing the superior hypertext ideas he had earlier), using [[URL]]s for addressing and with the current implementation being browser-based (though it is intended to become an open standard which can have many implementations on different platforms).

The basic structure of a document is in the form of an "EDL" file (Edit Decision List), consisting of a series of URLs pointing at the actual content (which, thus, must be already online) along with keywords indicating the type of linkage (which can be a transclusion of particular segments of a document into another, or a directed hyperlink at a specific spot of an article (shown in the user-interface of a viewer by a line pointing between two independently scrollable texts).
