SUMMARY

Bold Reader Enhance your online reading experience with half-bolded words! Bold Reader is designed to make reading text on web pages easier and more accessible. This free-to-use Chrome extension transforms the text of web pages by making the first half of every word bold, creating a unique visual cue that can help improve reading speed and comprehension. This tool is beneficial for people with any form of neurodivergence where this kind of formatting can aid reading.

Key Features: - One-click activation: Bold Reader works on any web page with a simple click. - User-friendly: Simple, clutter-free design makes it easy to use. - Secure: The extension only activates when you choose to use it and does not collect or store any personal data. This extension is a completely free tool, developed with the sole aim of offering help to anyone who could benefit from it. There are no commercial interests attached to this project. Instructions: 1. Install the Bold Reader extension. 2. Navigate to any web page. 3. Click on the Bold Reader icon to activate the extension and enhance the readability of the page. Bold Reader is a product of an experiment to explore the ways artificial intelligence, specifically OpenAI's GPT-4, can be used to contribute to making the web more accessible. The creation of Bold Reader involved coding advice and guidance from GPT-4 to an otherwise hapless amateur coder, but the extension itself operates independently without any AI components. Install Bold Reader today and make your online reading experience better! I am very open to feedback and suggestions to improve the tool, so feel free to reach out.
