DeepRead – My first large scale, public application.

This is the first application I poured lots of energy into, not like one of those projects, that you start, commit into your repo, and then let it dry off in a corner never to develop further.

It took lots of effort to detail, to create an app that was deemed even 'ready' to be released, which is probably one of the key learnings... release quicker.
I'll keep this blog short and list what the app can do as of now, that I deem to be the core aspects:
