A short-form knowledge discovery app powered by Wikipedia, built to turn the guilty pleasure of smartphone scrolling into educational reading and memory-friendly discovery.
Snippedia gives people a better use for scrolling: credible knowledge snippets instead of disposable content, with ways to save, revisit, and remember what they discover.
People already spend hours swiping through banal content. Snippedia asks whether that same habit can make them smarter.

The idea is simple: people already spend hours scrolling through banal content every day. Snippedia gives that familiar gesture a better destination by turning the scroll into short, credible educational discovery.
Because the project was not created as a monetization machine, opening the source felt like the right next step. Developers can study it, fork it, improve it, or adapt it into another learning experience. If that happens, the person who benefits most is the user.
Key product features include Wikipedia-powered content ingestion, transformed article summaries, smart search ranking, trending exploration, article history, favorites, reading insights, offline-aware caching, PWA support, and share previews.
The project demonstrates product thinking, frontend engineering, API integration, and UX strategy in one cohesive build.
