   Bible as RAG Database▲166

   Made this in a free evening. Index an permissive license translation of the Bible (WEB) into a RAG database to allow returning passages of similar semantic meaning. Lots of fun. For example, "more money more problems" returns Ecclesiastes 5:9-13 which, I'll just say, is spot on.. "Moreover the profit of the earth is for all. The king profits from the field. He who loves silver shall not be satisfied with silver, nor he who loves abundance, with increase. This also is vanity.

I felt really dissatisfied with the low quality of Bible apps available. The popular Bible app by YouVersion is so full of popups, feeds, notifications, and social media integrations that the Bible itself seemed like a side feature to me. I set out to make something simple, beautiful, focused, and delightful to use. I also wanted to add a couple features that I saw missing from other Bible apps. The 2 most notable are a reading…
