Bassaer (بصائر)
A digital reading platform turning the book Basaer into a fast web app with authentic Arabic typography.
Bassaer brings Dr. Haitham Talaat's book, Insights into the Universe, Life, and Religion, to the web. I converted the 900+ page Arabic PDF into a fast web application with authentic Tajawal typography, using Python and PyMuPDF to extract the book into Markdown chapters rendered through Next.js App Router. The platform offers an elegant parchment-and-ink light and dark reading mode, a sticky table of contents, and smooth chapter navigation.
