Document Adapters

Didactopus now includes adapter scaffolds for several common educational document types.

Supported adapter interfaces

PDF adapter
DOCX adapter
PPTX adapter
HTML adapter
Markdown adapter
text adapter

Current status

The current implementation is intentionally conservative:

it focuses on stable interfaces
it extracts text in a simplified way
it normalizes results into shared internal structures

Why this matters

Educational material commonly lives in:

syllabi PDFs
DOCX notes
PowerPoint slide decks
LMS HTML exports
markdown lesson files

A useful curriculum distiller must be able to treat these as first-class inputs.

Adapter contract

Each adapter returns a normalized document record with:

source path
source type
title
extracted text
sections
metadata

This record is then passed into higher-level course/topic distillation logic.
