Show HN: GrammarDaily – daily bite-sized grammar lessons

#1

Post by codekaze »

Hey everyone, I'm Utku! So, I just whipped up this fun little MVP for GrammarDaily, and I'd absolutely love for you lovely people to give it a try! It's a bit modest in features at the moment, but hey, that's where your awesome thoughts and ideas come in handy!

I'll be adding fresh grammar lessons every day and spicing things up with new features every week. Feel free to drop any suggestions, comments, or questions you might have. You can also reach me directly through my email at utku@usegrammardaily.com.

This is beautifully executed, well done. The UI in particular is near flawless for what it needs to do. Hopefully you add other languages soon? Are each of the lessons static or are they dynamically generated?

Thank you for the lovely feedback! The lessons are static at the moment, but I'm considering adding dynamically generated content in the future. As for other languages; that's a great idea! I'll definitely look into that this week and see if I can come up with something.

It's great. Some feedback:

The explanations of wrong answers are a mouthful.

For the first example today:

"Not quite! Ahoy matey! We need a small fix! Use in search of instead of for when looking for something. Happy treasure hunting!"

Remove the title, and cut straight to the point:

"When looking for something, use in search of instead of for".

My brain is already in overdrive trying to figure out these grammatical puzzles. I don't want to have to parse another whole sentence to get the correct answer.

That's a great point! Thank you so much for the valuable feedback. I'll definitely keep that in mind while crafting today's lesson!

I loved using this! The UI is quite nice and kudos for keeping sign-up free. English is not my native language, so I wished it provided more info on why a certain thing is correct or wrong Also, what are your plans regards to monetisation?

Aw, I'm so happy you enjoyed it! I'm actually hoping to make some improvements for the feedback by the end of this week. When it comes to making money from it, I haven't really figured that part out yet. But, rest assured, I fully intend to keep the core content free for everyone to access!

Kudos to you, Utku, for crafting such an impressive design! The ability to test out your work without needing to sign up is a fantastic feature, and I'm delighted by the lightning-fast page load times.

It means a lot, thank you! I really wanted to make it super easy for everyone to just dive right in without any hassle.
