Background

Type something and see it finger spelled in American Sign Language.

During the ClassActs book sprint at Gallaudet, decided to create a manual American Sign Language application alternative to Speak, which deaf people would not hear. This could be used to teach some basic finger spelling, such as your name in ASL.

Roadmap and future features

Dialects, beyond just ASL, as Sign Language is rather locale dependent.

Rate of Signing: variable for learning, speed up later, like rate adjust on classic Speak.

All sorts of other ideas as the appear.
