Speed Reader

A fast-paced, Minimalist Speed Reader (RSVP) built with Svelte 5. This tool helps you read faster and improve focus by displaying words one at a time in a fixed position, eliminating the need for eye movement across the page.

✨ Features

• RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation): Display text word-by-word at a controlled speed.
• Persistent State: Automatically saves your text and reading progress using IndexedDB and LocalStorage.
• Smart Text Parsing: Handles punctuation, hyphenated words, and pauses naturally to improve reading flow.
• Customizable Speed: Adjust the reading speed to match your comfort level.
• File Upload: Support for uploading text files to read.
• Wikipedia Integration: Read Wikipedia's featured article of the day or load a random Wikipedia article to practice speed reading.
• Modern UI: Built with Tailwind CSS 4 and Skeleton UI for a sleek, responsive experience.
