Reading time
Understand automatic article reading estimates and show or hide them on your publication.
Lettercamp calculates an article’s reading time from its content.
Reading time is calculated from the Markdown or MDX body at 200 words per minute,
rounded up to at least one minute. Frontmatter, imports, image URLs, JSX attributes,
and fenced code blocks do not count. Text inside Markdown and MDX elements counts;
text generated by a component at runtime cannot be included in the estimate.
