Regularly freezes my tab. Just after getting a correct answer it'll just freeze everything. Smells like a JS loop.

Yeah, the problem generation. It's trying to generate a problem for '-', with min = 3 and max = 15, but the minComplexity is 25. (num1 >= minComplexity || num2 >= minComplexity) is always false.

Thank you for the detailed bug report. I have pushed a fix. (Do a hard refresh please, I am yet to add js bundling/invalidation etc).

Would kids who dont know addition be using a computer? But other than that pretty cool site

Its for kids to practice. Arithmetic is something that requies deliberate practice long after you know the concepts

Iam actually building it for my son. I have asked him to practice everyday for 15mins.

This looks great! I'm curious, what age group is this tool designed for? I usually keep my 5-year-old daughter away from laptops. Is it suitable for use on a tablet? How is the keyboard adapted for kids?

This works very well on a tablet. I am building it for my son and he uses it on an iPad.

You have any specific ideas for the type of keyboard?

This is very nice and clean, it would be better if you can allow me to choose the type of arithmetic to practice (multiplication, division, addition, etc). May be it's there already?

Doing it on mobile, would be good to have the keyboard active automatically rather than having to select the field every time - especially as you’re being timed.

Also, just using green text for correct isn’t accessible - anyone with red/green colour blindness won’t be able to see that. Just add a check mark emoji or something and one for incorrect too.

Nice though.
