A reading, listening, and discovery platform for the knowledge-hungry.

Early stages

TL;DR: A PWA + desktop app that brings the free coding resources and tech-related study material to the user in a readable fashion.

I-care-a-bit version: Lernum is a web (and desktop) app that allows you to auth with GitHub (..and Google/Facebook/Twitter?) and gather valuable learning resources (podcasts, conference videos, articles, tutorials, e-books, etc.), read/view/listen to them, rate them and also discover new resources based on previous preferences.

A so-called netflix for the knowledge-hungry.

There'd be a convenient discovery, rating and sorting system. The main focus is a beautiful/clean/sleek reading or watching mode to focus on consuming the learning material. Idea/direction for design: https://dribbble.com/shots/3122340-Rise-Blocks-authoring

• Make it possible to parse/crawl awesome-* lists on GitHub or other types of learning resources
  • Navigation (cache previous list OR REQUEST so it's easy to go back)
• Set up Vue + Firebase
  • Saving of basic resources (links + plain text)
  • Categories/types of resources
• Markdown, pdf (& other formats?) reader
• Initial design
  • Icons + link interactions for sidenav
  • Transitions for router
  • Animating appended HTML (v-html)
  • ?
  • Colour palette!
  • Footer
• UX enhancements
  • Reading mode toggle
  • Breadcrumbs for Discovery tab
• Generate favicon and PWA icons
• Podcast, audio book & video players
• Sync with IndexedDB or local storage
  • So everything is saved (by default, your browser is your user and registration is only necessary if you want a x-device experience)
• Suggestions for the user (tags? + auto-discovery based on saved resources)
• Possibility to include feeds
• Rating system
  • Initially for self
  • Later also public ranking
• Auth with Firebase
• Submitting resources
  • Think of how to validate user-added resources; PRs seem the easiest atm but would mean we store some of the resources in our own repo, which doesn't seem ideal (maybe create a separate lernum-resouces repo for those)
