Word.ly is a place for writers to browse and favorite dynamic words. Inspired by colorhunt.co, Word.ly allows writers to add, favorite, and update words. Favorited words are stored in the user's local storage to make the site accessible without a login barrier. User's can also use a filter feature to browse words by type. When submitting a new word, the user's addition is validated against a dictonary API as well as the database to confirm that the submission is both an English word and does not already exists in the database.
