Every place in this world has an identity that manifests itself through history, traditions, and culture. The way each locality has developed, its origin, and the stories people tell end up unifying the community. It is important to preserve the history, traditions and culture of each place. This work involves the development of an authoring and content management tool that allows the creation of interactive narratives to be explored through a web application. These interactive narratives will contain pieces of knowledge and culture pertaining to the place it corresponds to. Therefore the Web of Stories project was created. This project is divided into two components (web and mobile). The web component involves the creation and development of an authoring tool that allows the creation of interactive narratives in the form of itineraries that can be visited, as well as managing its contents. This means it involves the development of a web application, backoffice, database and a support server. This thesis focuses on web component. This work was evaluated through a series of user tests, in order to assess its performance and the quality of each component in the created system.
