This is still a work in progress, and I would love for other people to contribute to grow this project.
I think given some more attention, this could turn into a valuable asset for language learning of many different languages (could easily be modified for Japanese) - as I personally find it slightly more entertaining than standard flashcards. And if you are anything like me, learning something is more about staying interested and motivated than it is anything else.

While it isn’t anything super special, I do think it is more effective (at least for me) than simply using Anki flashcards, as it keeps me slightly more entertained and interested - but I think the project could definitely be gamified a bit more. The primary goal of this project is to eventually create something that actually keeps the user interested in drilling through vocabulary.
Disclaimer: The project is mostly just a couple files, and was put together with AI, not using any type of framework or anything. If the project gets future collaborators, we would likely need to refactor the project to be more workable.



This looks interesting. One thing you could consider is colour coding the hanzi and pinyin, by tones, since the diacritics can be hard to see on a small phone screen. For example, the Pleco dictionary app uses red, green, blue, purple for tones 1,2,3,4. This also adds an additional cue for memorisation. A adjustable background colour for the word might also help readability.

Ah, yeah - this is a good Idea - I’ll try to work on getting that implemented! Thanks for the feedback :)
[EDIT] Implements - Color coded to match Pleco color schemes for hanzi/pinyin.
Nice!
Don’t know if you’ll get pinged for my edit on my other comment - The change is now applied (color coded hanzi to tone) Thanks for the suggestion!
