Project Description

####WordTweeze - Groom Your Essays, Letters and Poems with Tools that Build Language Skills

What problem does your project solve?

While creating essays, letters and poems, this app will help authors expand vocabulary, increase their understanding of the words they already use, and see visually how many times they choose to use words with a word count. They will have the opportunity to open and edit their own text files and then save them after "grooming" the vocabulary with the app.

My MVP goal is to provide a single word search for the API to make calls upon and display the results.

Who has this problem?

Students, authors, FaceBook posters, frustrated poets

How will your project solve this problem?

With API calls, this app will offer tutelage in specific word definitions, etymology, examples of use, related words and frequency (word usage over time). This will provide the user the opportunity to choose different and better words in the writing process.

What inputs does it need?

A word to search or a body of text in a text file.

What outputs does it produce?

Information on the webpage to read and/or an edited and saved text file.

What web API(s) will it use?

Quill and Wordnik

What technologies do you plan to use?

HTML, CSS, Javascript, JQuery, Bootstrap for the front-end

Feature list

Header, Footer, Input (Search) fields, Text Editor, Options ('word frequency', 'save'), Button Column with API calls, display area
