Scribd Viewer
Personal project
- Year

A free browser tool for reading Scribd documents that are otherwise locked behind Scribd's own viewer.
The problem
Scribd documents are frequently readable in the browser but locked in the native app or the download flow, which makes them awkward to read or archive.
What I did
- Built the document reader as a Next.js application with a separate Node API backend.
- Shipped and hosted the tool publicly for anyone to use at no cost.
