Reading Stats For Nerds

Maker

🎉🎉🎉 Hello I'm extremely happy to share with you a tool that I've been working on for over a year. I think reading is one of those keystone habits which can truly change someone's life in all dimensions. Yet it's surprising how limited the functionality that's being offered by the tools we use today is. I really wanted to see some stats on how much I'm reading in order to keep me motivated and read more overall. Unfortunately, none of the tools out there shows this out of the box. I think there are many folks who, like me, are curious to know their reading performance. So I built Reading Stats for Nerds. It's not perfect, but it's a start in the right direction. Many important functionalities and features need to be built — charts, multiple sources etc. Having said that, it works and you can easily get started. RS4N will change your reading in meaningful ways as you keep using it (and as we keep rolling out new features side by side). I thought launching on Product Hunt would make sense as I need feedback from a larger community to know if there's enough excitement for a product like this. I aim to continue working on the "reading more, reading better" problem statement. I've been discussing use-cases and problem statements with a lot of the early user base. The ultimate goal, of course, is to build something that solves a real problem and is financially viable. Would really love to get comments, suggestions and feedback from the PH Community. This has been an incredible learning experience. I hope y'all find this useful.

@beherebaba1 this looks great. Even more impressive that you did everything yourself from scratch to end
