Cozy
Remove distractions. Save for later.
Cozy is your modern-day reading assistant.
↗ Try the App! ↗
How is this app different?
Well here's what I’m building:
- An app that just works, no sign ups or setups.
- Progressively enhanced experience. Main feature works even without JS. Removing distractions happen on the server and dead clean HTML gets delivered
- All your data are cached and does not leave your device; offline access is by default
- Cloud-sync will be opt-in, with your choice of provider
- Will also explore smart insights, such as:
- text summarization
- dominant emotion
- other sources for lateral reading

Usage / Options
1. Copy, Paste
It's simple. When you open an article and want to turn it into a more cozy reading experience, just copy the url and paste it to the app's address bar.
2. One-click Bookmark
A bookmarklet could run a script to open the current page for you on Cozy. You can create this new bookmark titled 'Get cozy!' and put the following as value for the URL:
javascript:(function(){ window.open('https://cozy-reader.netlify.app/?url=%27 + window.location.href, %27_self%27); })();
This is possible on all major browsers, including Safari on iOS (where I personally use this often). Some screenshots:

3. One-click Extension then...
It doesn't exist yet... I'll probably get to creating a browser extension at some point. But for now, PRs welcome! :)
