Characters are counted as Unicode code points, so emoji and supplementary characters count as one. Words are whitespace-separated runs; sentences are split on punctuation such as . ! ? and their full-width equivalents; reading time assumes 200 words per minute. Everything runs in your browser.
Characters are counted as Unicode code points. We split the string with Array.from so that emoji and supplementary-plane characters (surrogate pairs) are counted as a single character each.
We assume 200 words per minute (WPM = 200), divide the word count by 200, and round up to the nearest minute. For languages without word separators, such as Japanese or Chinese, the character count is usually the more meaningful figure.
No. The statistics are computed entirely in your browser, and the text you paste is never sent to any external server.
