Hey guys. I wrote LinguaCafe. I didn't know it was posted here, I've just read it now. I didn't think this many people would be interested. I'll write a guide for Jellyfin, then add Italian, French and Dutch languages tomorrow.

#32It’s great that you can track your progress in this app!
When I was learning German, I used the dictionary lookup on Kindle a lot and made a web app to extract that vocabulary as Anki flashcards. It’s available on https://fluentcards.com. The code is open source on GitHub.

And as someone who now also speaks Italian, I am even more pleased to see that Italian support will be added tomorrow.
It is wonderful to see such a useful tool released as an open-source, self-hosted project. (^_^)

#37I'd love to try it, but is there a way to get it? Maybe I'm missing a link but I can't figure out a way to try it. Ah, found, it's here: https://github.com/simjanos-dev/LinguaCafe

Very cool! How do you handle segmenting sentences into individual words in Japanese? I've been building a similar app for Android, but gave up on Japanese partly because segmenting was so unreliable.

I know Christmas is over, but my letter to Santa would include: - some Anki sync feature (over an external Anki sync server or any other solution) - a non-docker install guide - of course more languages!
I've been looking for a tool to study vocabulary this way, especially in languages I'm already fluent in, to learn more nuances or specific meanings to some words. Having tried several things I settled on the bookmark feature of my Wiktionary Android apps (Livio's, which are nice), and a small sync/script chain that would let me review words, compare definitions in different dictionaries, choose the best and edit/complete it, and make an Anki card of it. The whole process was still tedious.

As a credited contributor to the EDICT[1] Japanese/English dictionary, I am very pleased to see its successor JMdict[2] actively supported by this project. Bravo! And as someone who now also speaks Italian, I am even more pleased to see that Italian support will be added tomorrow. It is wonderful to see such a useful tool released as an open-source, self-hosted project. (^_^) [1] EDICT: http://edrdg.org/jmdict/edict_…
Thank you for helping me learn Japanese! :)
Can you please explain what do you mean by actively supporting JMDict? I hope I didn't make an attribution mistake, or misunderstood something. My understanding is that I can use those files in my project as long as I follow the license guidelines.
It makes me really happy that so many people are interested in it. :)
