What I built
A small library that parses a text and estimates how long it would take to read it with i18n support. Written in TypeScript, you get typing for free!
Usage
import { readingTime } from 'reading-time-estimator';
const text = `Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.`
// default options
const result = readingTime(text, 10);
output:
{
"minutes": 10,
"words": 97,
"text": "10 min read"
}
// with french locale
const result = readingTime(text, 10, 'fr');
output:
{
"minutes": 10,
"words": 97,
"text": "10 min de lecture"
}
