What is Word Buffer?

Word Buffer is a mini project that my roommate and I were inspired to create as a gimmick. While taking essay writing classes, we found that often, to add variety to our word choice and avoid repetition, we would search for synonyms of words we were using. This process often became tedious (especially given my often lazy vocabulary) so I decided to write a Python CLI program to help out! With a casual, goofy interface, Word Buffer is certainly not serious but is a lot of fun! Just try it out and see what goofy, random word buffed sentences you can come up with!

Where can Word Buffer go?

While Word Buffer is a gimmick right now (primarily because of it's completely random nature and lack of connotation and context matching), there are several improvements that can be made in the future to make it a more helpful tool. Perhaps some tools can be added which examine the entire sentence or context of a word to determine which synonym would best match that word.

What did I learn from Word Buffer?

It was primarily a venture to (1) have fun and (2) learn more Python + virtual environments.
