Comment on Show HN: While the world builds AI Agents, I'm just building calculators

Comments

That's a nice, clean website. Well done!

I create calculators in support of the guides I write for immigrants.[0] They are a great way to turn 10 pages of text into a simple form with a clear output. I'm a big fan of them, especially when you add advice to the output.

A bit of advice + opinions:

- The fields look grayed out and disabled. Using a traditional white background would make more sense.

- You should explain what the calculator does, why it matters, and how to interpret the output. This confers some SEO benefits, too.

- The age calculator would be easier to find as a difference-between-two-dates calculators. It would be cool to have a reverse "X days ago" calculator. I use both often, and most of the top options suck.

- Set some maximum line widths. It helps readability.
