How a historical collection was analyzed and modernized.

“Information technology at the service of the Gospel and the Eucharist.” — Saint Carlo Acutis

A Non-Profit Tribute to Saint Carlo Acutis

This portal is an evangelization, educational, and research initiative dedicated to freely preserving and disseminating to all nations the Exhibition conceived by Saint Carlo Acutis (1991–2006). All conception and authorship rights and credits belong to the Saint.


The Starting Point

The Historic Collection of Carlo Acutis & The 2000s Challenge

Between 2002 and 2005, an Italian boy devoted an immense amount of time in his life to a grand mission: researching, cataloging, and creating an international exhibition of 130 Eucharistic Miracles recognized by the Catholic Church across the centuries. That young man was Saint Carlo Acutis (1991–2006).

During the mining and migration of the original archive (www.miracolieucaristici.org), it was impossible not to be awestruck by the sheer magnitude of the work: hundreds of high-resolution panels, historical maps, multi-language materials, and hundreds of detailed pages produced by a young boy using early-2000s technology. A monumental endeavor of research, design, and catechesis that astounds by its dedication and depth.

The original website created at the time relied on 2006 web technology: static pages built with table-based layouts, legacy character encodings, fragmented files, and no support for mobile devices, smartphones, or interactive maps.

The Sacred Invariant: Modernize without altering a single doctrinal line or historical fact. Every date, medical report, theological preface, and holy relic image was strictly preserved.


Agentic Engineering

Use of Agentic Artificial Intelligence

Agentic artificial intelligence was used as a support tool for the modernization process. Based on instructions, the agents developed custom tools to process gigabytes of media from the original site, apply design standards, among other tasks.

The entire process involved advanced prompt engineering and human revalidation, allowing continuous adjustments until achieving the expected modernization goals.

Spatial vision algorithms extracted text blocks, multi-column narratives, dates, and high-resolution relic photographs directly from the original 300 DPI PDFs created by Carlo Acutis.

2. Medical Structuring & Forensic Reports

Rigorous mapping of scientific findings in the miracles.

3. Canonical 17-Language Translation

Multilingual engineering pipeline delivering over 2,200 miracle entries and hundreds of theological terms across 17 languages, including native RTL for Arabic and Urdu.

130 Miracles

Cataloged, georeferenced, and structured with historical and medical reports.

🌐 17 Languages

Full native canonical translations with bidirectional RTL support for Arabic and Urdu.

💾 26+ GB Processed

2000s legacy web files, 300 DPI PDFs, biographical books, and historical manuscripts mined.

📜 190 Panels (300 DPI)

Official 60x80cm printable exhibition posters available with QR code generator.

The website was developed using widely established web technologies with a simple, lightweight structure independent of external frameworks. This approach simplifies maintenance and ensures the project remains functional and easily updateable over the years.
