upvote for the idea! Perhaps you can add screening and based on that ask users if they would like to unlock some skills? E.g. lots people are giving up on interviews after the first fail.

@spacegangster thank you so much for that feedback! will keep you updated on the next iteration :)

I love the PWA approach. Are you taking that approach because this is version 1 or you believe it is the future? For your current product, IOS development doesn't seem necessary. It was easy for me to bookmark and the UX/UI was clean. Only thing that would confuse people is scanning the bar code on your website takes users to a in-app browser which does not have an "add to home screen" option.

@russellreeder Such helpful feedback! Definitely exploring PWA. This initiative is a part of a larger personal learning tool we're building so will update you as we bake it out more.

Like the way it's presented. Focusses on the problem that I'm trying to solve -> how do I communicate better, for example.
Darlene Dang
@adrian_sean_taylor Yes!!! We really wanted to showcase how applicable mental models are in our everyday life :)
Dan Pantelo

Nice app! Just some suggestions: 1. tick box at end of each article to mark it was read. Once ticked the article name in the main list got marked as read for easy observation of which items have been read. This could be in the form of greyish item, a ticked checkbox as the bullet next to the article name, or a ticked icon at the left margin of the article name in the list. 2. daily notification of an unread random article

@fairread Yes! These are great suggestions, thank you! We'll be thinking about these for upcoming iterations. If you'd like to stay updated on any changes, let me know :)
