examples of tools?

[ianstormtaylor]

Hello, I'm just wondering... I feel like a while ago I saw a tool that would highlight unnecessary words in a piece of text. And a few other examples of interesting prose-level tooling built on top of Unified. I could have sworn I found them via the Unified website, but cannot find them anymore.

Did these exist? Do they still exist?

(This is vague, I'm sorry!)

Damn, of course as soon as I asked. They were these two:

• https://wooorm.com/readability/
• https://wooorm.com/write-music/

And they are in the "Showcase" section of the site. But I didn't realize from the homepage because it looked like that section was only for big existing OSS projects like Prettier and Gatsby.

Hey Ian! Yup, those projects I made are still alive, glad you found them! (There’s also common-words and short-words btw)

I reworked the website last week, including many more examples to showcase, but indeed “hiding” those two compared to how big they were before.

I’m all ears if you have a suggestion on how to make it more clear that it’s not just big OSS things like prettier / gatsby!

Very cool!

I'm honestly not sure. Although maybe the Build and Learn sections could also be expanded from 2 to 5 examples to match the others (maybe even specifically chosen for variety), and it might help give the idea that there are lots of possibilities.

Either way, awesome project!

Agree, it’s much better, fixed!
