Capstone: Developing a User-Friendly Hebrew Literacy App

Seth Howell shares about his capstone, which was designing and building Tanakh Reader, a Hebrew literacy application for smartphones. The app contains the entire Hebrew Old Testament, enriched with grammatical content, vocabulary acquisition tools, personalized data, and an incremental ordering of texts based on difficulty. Seth hopes to publish it to the app store for Android and iOS in the near future.

Hey, this is Seth! 👋 Thanks for checking out my work. (see app details below) 📲 As of 10/26/22, I'm testing a beta version of Tanakh Reader internal to Sattler 🌐 I hope to move towards open source. My code code will live here: github.com/Tanakh-Reader 📬 I'd love to hear from you! You can reach me at [e-mail] Blessings ✌

Love the app, great for practising my reading. Especially being able to slow it down

I love it, Seth. It's great. I remember you saying it and now I see the actual work in its raw and natural.

Great looking app! I'd be interested to see if there will be more flexibility with choosing known words in the future (like if you are learning vocab by chapter rather than occurrence)! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Daniel, and great idea! I'd be interested in exploring that option.

Wow, incredible initiative! Well done! When do you hope to release it, and will it be open source?

[@sethhowell3407]

Thanks Andrew! It was great getting to chat with you and get ideas for open source.
