Scrabble Solver by Kamil Mielnik VS readability

Well done tool, thanks!

I used it at https://scrabble-solver.org and got a small performance improvement (from ~70% to ~80%) in PageSpeed Insights on mobile.

I got Scrabble as a Christmas gift about 20 years ago and I immediately fell in love with it.

Fast forward 20 years and now I have a Scrabble Solver app (open source) in my portfolio that I'm proud of. It still needs improvements to run nicely on mobile.

Maybe someone will find it useful, so I'm sharing here :)

I'm working with the Mozilla's readability library https://github.com/mozilla/readability to get the "readable" text from articles and now I want to style the extracted text in a readable way.

Do you remember the Firefox Reader View? It's a feature that removes all unnecessary components like buttons, menus, images, and so on, from a website, focusing on the readable content of the page. The library powering this feature is called Readability.js, which is open source.

I wonder if Firefox "reader mode as a utility" might be a viable alternative for Pinboard like "content oriented" archiving?

Depending upon the type of content, one might want to look into using the Readability (Browder's reader view) to parse the webpage. It will give you all the useful info without the junk. Then you can put it in the DB as needed.

Btw, readability, is also available in few other languages like Kotlin:

Use Mozilla's Readability to extract that sweet, sweet text content from webpages.

Same as above but the ability to grab the entire article text (you can use the Readability library for that: https://github.com/mozilla/readability)

So first part of the task is to "extract the text from URL", and that is achieved by using descendant of https://github.com/mozilla/readability library which can extract text of any URL.
