Hi,
Nice work. I was wondering if this extension could be customized for other text, such as quote of the day. Will it be difficult to modify the code or is the code modular?

Sorry, if this is off-topic. Rgds

Sorry for the late reply, haven't been able to visit DEV in a while. Technically this is possible, code is quite modular! But for the quote of the day, since it's a language learning app, I'd like for the quotes to be solely related to that for now. :)

This is so cool! Despite being a software developer for the last few years, this year would be my first year contributing to Hacktoberfest and your project looks so open-source beginner-friendly, I'm already looking at how to contribute!
