Write Right

Have you lost the practice of neat handwriting as our society becomes increasingly virtual? Write Right lets you check your handwriting's legibility by extracting text from an image of your work.

Inspiration

Through Covid, we realized we lost practice of our handwriting due to most of our school and work going online. With lifestyles returning back to normal, we want to give our audience the opportunity to assess their legibility and return to healthy habits of practice.

What it does

Our application will take in your image file, look through your writing, and return it as online text. If it misreads, it is an indicator that your handwriting needs some work. Through repeated file uploads, you can match your goal of legibility.

How we built it

We used the Pen to Print api to convert your image file to text. We hosted it on a webpage constructed with javascript, html, and CSS. We wrote our code in VSCode.

Challenges we ran into

We had to learn how to use APIs, manage our time effectively, set reasonable and realistic goals, and combat burnout.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of finishing our project and making it look good.

What we learned

We learned how to use APIs and how to create a website that allows you to interface different processes to reach one end goal.

What's next for Write Right

We want to expand our project to use grammarly APIs and return a more concrete level of legibility so we can cater to our audience in a more specific manner.
