Hello. I decided to make this community, since I didn’t see any that related to learning languages. I currently speak English as a native speaker, and I’m working on A1 German. I made this simple web app to help me practice vocabulary. I find most flashcard apps to lack repetition on weaker words, so I made one that naturally focuses on the words you struggle the most with.
I honestly had an easier time making this app that going through the extensive Anki guides and tech manuals. Also, making new cards is easier in my app, in my opinion. I can make 400 cards in about 30 seconds and they’re automatically added to the Tier 1 list.
I held off of using Anki for way too long because it’s intimidating to get into. Turns out it’s great, and it can do all the things (or be configured to).
I think there’s room for smaller tools that are easier to get started with. Thanks for sharing!
One setting that’d be nice to have is the option to configure recognition vs production cards. Ie, set it to only DE>EN or vice versa.
I have no idea how to prepare my anki decks for your trainer. So reconfiguring anki (e.g. according to community advices or AI-response) is more useful to me.
That’s fair. But if you ever feel like using it, it’s extremely simple. Click on the Import Words button, then copy-paste literally any number of items in the following format:
Word1,Translation1
Word2,Translation2.
etc.
I don’t know if there is a limit to the number of words you can put in, but you can use an LLM to give it the words you currently have, and ask for 100 more all formatted properly. It’s how I’ve been expanding my word list, as I memorize the set.
Anki is admittedly, and undeniably, more powerful than my little tool. My little tool is just very specialized and easily expandable. Literally takes me 20 seconds to give an LLM my current word list using the Export Word List button, ask it for 100 more words, and to maintain the formatting. Done.
