🌟 Vocabulary Log — Lead Developer
A Safari Extension that lets users instantly log unfamiliar words while browsing — no copy/paste or switching tabs. Especially helpful for those with aphasia, dementia, language learners, or neurodivergent users.
- ✨ Designed for simplicity and dignity — no data is ever sold, and it's 100% free to anyone with an accessibility need.
- 🧠 Built using Swift, JavaScript, and the Safari Extension API, with support for local word storage and offline access.
- 📚 Includes import/export features to support therapy use, ESL vocab tracking, or personal word learning.
As part of Appccessibility Shox, I helped build Vocabulary Log to address a real problem I saw in how people struggle to learn and retain new words — especially when cognitive load or memory is a challenge. It’s a tool about empowerment, made with care.
