WriteBuff 是与伙伴共同开发的闭源产品。本仓库用于公开展示产品思路、界面与设计过程，不包含生产源码和私有产品资料。
IELTS 和 TOEFL 学习者经常在 Word、Google Docs、模考网站或其他熟悉的工具里写作。现有 AI 写作产品往往要求用户进入一个新的编辑器，完成一次评分后流程就结束了；题目、计时、批改、改写和表达复习彼此分散。
WriteBuff 希望在不打断原有写作习惯的前提下，把一次练习变成完整闭环。它以桌面伙伴的形式留在用户身边，用户仍然可以在原来的软件中写作，需要时再通过快捷键开始练习、提交作文和查看报告。

- 将历史作文和报告保存在本地，方便回看和比较
这个产品不是把功能都塞进一个窗口。桌宠需要轻量，不能遮挡用户正在写作的页面；完整报告又需要足够空间呈现评分、修改和素材。因此产品把“陪伴与状态反馈”和“深度查看报告”拆成两个界面。
同时，桌宠的互动不能成为新的干扰。我在设计中需要处理计时状态、主动提醒、暂停与超时、用户拖动和关闭提醒等细节，让角色有存在感，但不抢走写作本身的注意力。
快捷键读取题目和作文也涉及信任问题，因此界面需要明确告诉用户何时读取、读取什么，以及复制失败时如何手动粘贴，而不是让应用持续监听屏幕或剪贴板。
这是一个合作项目。我主要负责界面视觉、用户体验和前端页面设计，包括把“选题—计时—写作—提交—报告—表达积累—复习”的学习流程整理成清晰的产品路径，设计桌宠与报告窗口的分工，以及不同练习状态下的界面反馈和交互。
我会结合真实试用中的理解成本和操作问题持续调整页面，而不是只负责把已经确定的需求画出来。其他合作伙伴共同参与产品开发，生产源码保持私有。
仍在开发和测试。 核心桌面流程已经可以运行，目前继续围绕跨平台体验、报告可读性、桌宠互动和复习闭环进行调整。本展示仓库后续会补充产品截图、交互演示和更完整的设计过程。
WriteBuff is a collaborative, closed-source product. This repository publicly documents the product, interface, and design process without production source code or private materials.
IELTS and TOEFL learners often write in Word, Google Docs, mock-test sites, or other familiar tools. Many AI writing products require a new editor and stop after one evaluation, leaving prompts, timing, correction, rewriting, and expression review disconnected.
WriteBuff stays alongside the learner's existing environment. A desktop companion supports the session, while shortcuts start practice, submit the essay, and open a detailed report.
Capture prompt → Choose exam, task, and time → Write in the existing app
→ Submit by shortcut → Review score, edits, and upgrade
→ Save expressions → Review later → Start the next practice
- Windows and macOS desktop application
- Global shortcuts for prompt capture, timing, and submission
- IELTS and TOEFL task and timing presets
- Rubric scores, line-level edits, upgraded drafts, and idea material
- Saved expressions (“Buffs”) with review reminders
- A desktop companion responding to timing, completion, score change, and review backlog
- Local essay and report history
The product separates lightweight companionship and status feedback from the information-dense report window. The companion must remain present without covering the writing environment, while the report needs room for evaluation and revision.
Interactions also need to feel alive without becoming distracting. Timing, reminders, pauses, timeouts, dragging, and mute controls all shape that balance. Prompt and essay capture must communicate when data is read and provide manual paste when copying is unavailable.
This is a collaborative product. I focus on UI, UX, and frontend interface design: structuring the complete learning path, defining the roles of the companion and report windows, and designing interface feedback across practice states.
I also iterate the interface around comprehension and usability issues found in testing rather than only styling predetermined requirements. Other collaborators contribute to product development; production source code remains private.
In development and testing. The core desktop workflow runs today. Current work focuses on cross-platform experience, report readability, companion interaction, and the expression-review loop. Screenshots, interaction walkthroughs, and more design process will be added here.
