Pretty cool. Evergreen workshop debates about stress and meter were one of the things that drew me back to programming while I was pursuing my MFA years ago. Care to share what dataset you're using to identify meter?
The rhyme scheme feature is throwing an error in the console. And I initially had some trouble with the Show Meter feature on Firefox but it's working on Chrome. Neat!
When you've polished this up a little and worked out the kinks, I'd recommend sharing it on Show HN.
- jacobevelyn 7y agoThanks for the feedback! I really appreciate your input. The console error I'm aware of (assuming the error you're seeing is `newTree should be an object`); it doesn't seem to be actually breaking anything (as far as I can tell?), so I've just been planning to fix it when I release some other improvements over the coming days. Thanks for the tip on Firefox—will take a look and see what's going on there! And to your question about the meter dataset, it's mostly using the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary: http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/cgi-bin/cmudict http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/cgi-bin/cmudict
- klenwell 7y agoYes, that was the error. I tried it again with Firefox and it worked. It was just slow. Maybe a UI doodad to indicate it's processing. Thanks for sharing the cmudict. Yes, I think that was the one I downloaded back when I was tinkering in this domain. Discovering the various English language datasets was one of those things that made me say, "Hey, the internet is pretty cool!"
- jacobevelyn 7y agoAgreed! And thanks for the tip—a UI spinner of some sort would definitely be helpful.
