Hey DEV community! 👋

I wanted to share a quick project I built using AI-assisted development (Vibe Coding): a lightweight, real-time **Online Word Counter Tool**.

As an SEO specialist, I often need quick text analysis (word count, reading time, character limits). Instead of using bloated third-party sites, I decided to build one using pure JS/PHP with AI guidance.

I’d love for you to try it out and let me know if you run into any bugs or have feature ideas!

Feedback on UI/UX or code optimization is warmly welcomed! What micro-tools are you guys building with AI lately?
