lesbar.club's Issues

User selected language

Allow a user to select a language for a given text. Add a dropdown next to the check button.

Metrics are displayed for a short time

On Chrome there is little graphic glitch that shows the metrics when the page is loaded

Allow Language Selection

Allow to select a different language. The backend supports at the moment english and german. The supported languages should be fetch from the backend.

Add Web Extension

Similar to the language tool web extension (https://languagetool.org/#firefox_chrome) there could be a web extension which automaticly analyizes the content of text fields.

The web extension could show the score of the text in the bottom right corner of the text field.

In the settings of the web extension you could choose the default readability index and language which will be used.

Add README

• What is lesbar.club?
• How can I install it?
• How can I improve it?

Add Hints

Show how we slice the text into sentences, words and syllables. Maybe highlight sentences with alot of words and words with alot of syllables to show suggestions on how to "improve"/simplify the text.

Propose language of input to user

When the user inputted a text, check the language of the text (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/i18n/detectLanguage) and then propose the detected language, if the currently selected language differs.

WSTF1 is used, but WSTF4 is expected

Visualize Readability

Improve the visual fidelity of the app. Show some kind of visual representation of the raw score. Maybe a color scale or a progress bar.

Send only selected readability metrics

The backend should decide which readability metrics are suitable for a given language and should only send the results for those back. The ui should then dynamically display the results.

Improve SEO

SEO needs to better. Things which could be improved: seobility

Hyphenation of "einen"

"einen" is not correctly hythenated to "ei-nen"
