In the first step, you can give your codes proper symbols to structure the project roughly. Let`s assume a part of your analysis deals with apartment damages.

Coding without words is really easy: Use the traditional verbal coding you are already familiar with and create a unique analysis, which has never existed like this before. All the functions of conventional coding are supported, meaning emoticons and icons will be displayed in the overview tables of coded segments and in visualizations such as the Document Portrait.
