Worked well for me. 1. Dates can be calendar input. 2. Could possibly add 2 tabs: 1. Tweets and 2. Tweets & Replies. Similar to how Twitter shows. It should be easy to get that view. 3. I could see likes and RTs count for each tweet. Co

It could be because the author took time to give a detailed explanation of how he implemented it. It shows to a beginner programmer that (s)he could automate simple tasks like this easily and a way to approach it.

Glad you like it. Some prompts are from Reddit (There will be a link to source for these prompts next to it). I created the rest.

I like this because there are less books. Too often I get bogged down due to too many books suggested by Amazon or any other site. Less books = good. Also, for the existing books, you could probably list the top people who recommend it as a

Thank you Sushobhan. The idea behind not storing is to make users feel that they can write whatever they want. Probably I'll look into having an option to save locally or sending as mail, in case user feels the writing is too good to l

Free writing is a process where you set a specific time and just write without worrying about the content. I found that it is a really useful technique to break writer's block. So I build this app last weekend. Definitely lot of improv

True but when we talk about nuances in English numbers, we do have to consider the other common ways. For someone who is learning English numbers and watches, say football (soccer), they would often hear 1-nil in commentary. If they are res

This is great. Since we speak the language every day (even though I'm not a native speaker), we do not see the minute details of it. I could think of one more. 308 - Lot of people pronounce it as 3-naught-8. When we see a score, 1-0, w

Some people care, some don't. I personally prefer to use @mypersonaldomain.com, that way it looks professional and at the same time, it belongs to me as long as I own the domain name (not tied to a company).

Lot of factors have played a part in Leicester's rise to the top this season. They have played the same group of players for the most part, who have all been in the form of their lives, a really good manager (with good man-management s

This is one of the reasons I don't always support TLDRs or the apps that try to read an article and give you the important points. Yes, most of the articles can be explained in a sentence or two. But then there are articles or talks fr

It's scary how true this is. And then there are small bugs that come up when you do a series of steps in a certain order which no user will possibly do that are required to be given high priority for fixing. As for relevancy, I think I

As I said in my main comment, I love this app. I'll be using this quite often from now. A suggestion would be to not consider backspace/delete/arrow keys as typing something? Because I feel that I spend lot of time hitting ba

I like this app because it gets you writing. The problem most of the times is just start to write something. When I sit down to write, I have no idea where to begin with. This would definitely get me in the flow. Yes, I cannot write stuff t

If I had 5 secs timer, I would have also spelled Chuck Palahniuk's name wrong. But then, I would not have written this much in the first place. I like what you have written.
