How we built it

Frontend Overview

The frontend is built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to create a clean and user-friendly interface. Key features include: Navigation & Layout: A header with navigation links, a text input area in the main section, and a footer with copyright information. Interactive Features: Users can input text into a textarea and choose from four buttons: Fix Spelling, Summarize Text, Fix Grammar, or Get Suggestions. An output box displays results, and users can copy them with a single click. Styling: A modern design with fonts like Montserrat and Allura, combined with animations like a typewriter-style welcome message. JavaScript Logic: Functions like processSpelling handle communication with the backend via fetch requests.

Backend Overview The backend, built using Flask, processes text using advanced AI models. Key components include: Endpoints: /: Serves the main HTML page. /process_spelling, /process_summarization, /process_grammar, /process_suggestions: Handle text processing tasks by interacting with AI models.

AI Models: Spelling Correction: Uses the Hugging Face T5-large-spell model for accurate corrections. Summarization: Condenses lengthy text using the Falconsai/text_summarization model. Grammar Fixes: The vennify/t5-base-grammar-correction model corrects grammatical errors. Text Suggestions: Google’s Gemini GenAI provides contextual improvements. Error Handling: Returns fallback messages if processing fails or inputs are invalid.
