Hi PH,
I'm Michał – the developer of GreyParrot Reader.
It’s my pleasure to share with you my new app – a Reader for eBooks, which has evolved (and is still evolving!) from a small hobby project into a full reading environment. It now supports two types of eBooks, web articles, and soon also PDFs and newsletters.
The key unique feature is inline and full-paragraph translation, with the option to save phrases for later recap – in their original text context!
📌 Roadmap:
* Closed beta:
- PDF & newsletter support
- Notes/annotations
- Synchronization between devices – yes, unique navigation algorithm allow seamlessly read across different screen sizes and setups
* Planned:
- iPhone/iPad support
- Web / WebAssembly app
- Offline translations
…And since I’m a developer, here’s a quick look at the tech stack 🚀:
- **Blazor & MAUI** as the core – just perfect
- **ActualLab.Fusion**
- **pdf.js** for PDF handling
- **Firebase** as backend
