TLDR: I created and deployed a WhatsApp LLM bot in 12 hours to learn English better and faster. I am exploring how to make LLM useful in our everyday lives. I am sharing my design choices, what I created, tools I used, lessons learned, and a product roadmap.
I'm developing the app in phases. Stay tuned for updates. Check out a questionnaire at the end where I need design guidance from the community and I hope you can participate in the beta
This is not a coding tutorial. I'll put all the resources I used at the end so you can check them out if you're interested.
The problem
I love reading and writing.
But, as a non-native English speaker, I often come across new words that I don't know or think I know but need help understanding. New words fly by as I go about my busy day or enjoy the flow of reading. I want them to stick with me; I want to be more eloquent.
How about looking them up and writing them down? Digital solutions (e.g. dictionaries or vocabulary apps) and paper and pencil just don't work.
- They take me away from the moment (for example, reading a good book)
