Hello People!
I managed to get a super basic prototype working using python as a base, but the idea is to build an interpreter in Rust or C.

Sk takes uncertainty as a fundamental part of its design, variables can be known, partially known or unknown and it allows you to work with them seamlessly. It has support for symbolic variables and has a nice syntax yet to come.

This is a simple example in python…

Final changes before shipping!

  • Organized project structure, it was getting messy
  • A very cool 𝖊𝖆𝖘𝖙𝖊𝖗 𝖊𝖌𝖌 :)
  • Added some new Themes (copied from colorhunt)
  • Very small things: added small version text, fixed tutorial background text, changed some icons

demo -> https://read-coach.vercel.app

TODO after shipping:

  • Improve backend for saving texts and settings per user -> login, stats, etc, probably in the near future but I’m a bit tired of this project, I’ll come back to it later

Biggest update so far!
demo-> https://read-coach.vercel.app/

  • Added a simple tutorial with basic instructions, finally that button isnt a placeholder
  • Added cooler start buttons because it is pretty easy to do that with tailwind (ty tailwind!)
  • Improved Zen mode (still on the works tho)
  • Added word alignment so that your eyes can have an anchor point (disabled by default), I’m still not very pleased with the current solution but it will do for now
  • Improved some texts

Before shipping I will add a lot more texts and many other things!

  • fast keyboard control (very fast)
    this is taking so long to do i cant understand my own comments lol

test it out! https://read-coach.vercel.app/

planning to add an interactive tutorial to explain this website and maybe even actually spending the time to make a user page with statistics and all that (it will take a lot of time)

Suggestion - flashing words on the screen in at a fixed pace at such a big font size will give an artificially increased reading speed. The most time consuming part of reading is actually moving your eyes and scanning the lines. I tried a reading test like this, and it told me my speed was 900 wpm evn tho in reality its more like 300-400 wpm!

ADDED CUSTOM FONTS!
Look at that cool dynamic repositioning of the letters, this took so long to code…
There’s a lot more to come, although this isn’t open for the public yet :(

What is this project? the monkeytype.com for quick readers where you also learn how to double your reading speed in minutes using RSVP.

Im building a monkeytype.com but for reading instead of writting!
I will be using a vite and tailwind because they’re cool and pretty.
For now this is just an idea idk how this is gonna work out
I hope this project is useful for someone because it was very useful for myself :) that’s why I’m very excited to work on this!
