highlight.cool

highlight.cool lets you learn what your readers enjoy.

More interesting parts will become bolder than less interesting parts — kinda like how Medium does it, except better.

Try highlighting some text and you'll be able to create a highlight of your own or copy it to your clipboard.

Hover over a highlight and you'll see a counter for how many times that text has been highlighted. I call these neats.

Why "neats"? Because it's the reader's way of saying that's pretty neat.

Add it to your site

To add it to your site (no signup required):

  1. Add the following to your <head> element 
    <link rel="preload" href="https://highlight.cool/public/highlight.cool.css" as="style" onload="this.onload=null;this.rel='stylesheet'" >
<script defer src="https://highlight.cool/public/highlight.cool.js"></script>
  2. Add this button somewhere on your site 
    <button id="show-highlights">Show highlights</button>
  3. Add a "highlight-cool" class to the top-level element of the blog. Children of this element are able to be highlighted. For example: 
    <div class="highlight-cool">
    <h1>Everything I know about LLMs</h1>
    <p>
        Something something stochastic parrot
    </p>
    <p>
        Something something tool not replacement
    </p>
    <!-- ... -->
</div>
