A simple turtle companion to study with you. It highlights important information, and those highlights can persist across sessions if you choose. Turtly is meant to be a supportive friend, handling the tedious work of highlighting so you can focus on learning. It began as a Hackathon project and has grown into a companion for my late-night study sessions.
A turtle companion that pops out while you read and studies alongside you. It highlights what it finds important, and you can finalize or remove those highlights with a click. Future features include paragraph summaries and quick notes. It’s designed to learn by your side — not as a cheat code, but as a companion to handle the tedious parts of studying.
