I've been wanting to make a modern and intuitive client for reading papers for a while. A huge thanks to arXiv for all they do

Check it out at OpenParchment. You can find the code here.

Enjoy and let me know what you think!

I like the categories, but I would also like to be able to exclude categories that I'm not interested in.

I would also like the buttons (eg. the Read Paper button) to be actual hyperlinks instead of just javascript, so that I can open them in a new tab.

I really Like it awesome idea. I noticed the loading animation is a bit wobbling and the paper is not adjusted to my screen width on the smartphone.
