Hello product hunters! Here i announce you what i made on the weekend. Yeah, it's my side project, to solve pain in my eyes when reading much blog posts, especially at night. After tweeting to some people (more on it later, maybe on some blog post? 😊), i've decided to make it available for everyone, also the source code, so everyone could be happy to use this and probably improve this in future. So, let's discuss this for further improvements. Let me know if you have any thoughts. EDIT: Remove the upvote thing 😂

Would love to try this but don't know how to 'install' it. Any help is appreciated.

@fbara Hello Frank! Thanks for shouting that out! Now there is a section called "Installation" and you could follow that. Hope this helps 🙏

I don't know why, but I don't like the black backgrounds for reading. It annoys me and I always leave the site.

@moinism Hi Moin, thanks for your thoughts 😀 Here is the why (in a more detailed mode) : I found that when i read much stuffs on white background, it hurts my eyes. That's why i created this product. When i feel i could read some article in a white background, then i will go ahead. Otherwise, i will press Cmd+E (my favourite shortcut for this extension), and suddenly the article will be turned into the night vision (which is black and white), and.., i continue the reading.

See also BeeLine Reader (http://www.beelinereader.com) for a tool that makes reading easier. It has a mode that changes the background color, and it also applies color gradients that help you read faster by speeding up line transitions. Disclosure: I'm a co-founder.

@tectonic Hi Andrew! Nice to see another product on the same line, which should be good 👍🏽 Personally i am not a fan of a gradient when reading, but your bookmarklet seems pretty neat. One of the feedback that i have received from people is they want this kind of product to be available on iPhone. Good luck bro! 😉
