This is a personal project and is being shared for portfolio purposes only. I will not be addressing issues or accepting PRs.

Built to scratch an itch and to:

• learn Electron app development
• build something with LLMs
• refresh React skills

Work to be done:

• fix production builds. Knex.js has some known issues when using in a built Electron app. I may need to switch to Rxdb.
• attempt parallization of card generation. Move to a background task and perform async.

Manabo 学ぼう is a flashcard app to help me learn Japanese faster by leveraging ChatGPT to automate the grunt work in creating flash cards. Here's how:

Simply add a sentence you've come across which has a word you don't understand

It automatically:

1. translates the sentence into English and hiragana.
2. writes out the definition of the word as per its meaning in the sentence (remember, a single word can have multiple meanings)
3. provides the right way to pronounce the word (Japanese has two distinct pitch accents - Chinese has even more!).

and ...

4. provides some general usage info (formal/casual etc).
5. shows other definitions with example sentences.

You can chat via ChatGPT on all your cards.

• use the chat panel to ask any questions you like about your vocabulary.
• use quick shortcuts to ask common questions such as "What's the differene between XXX and XXX" or "What are similar words to XXX"

• review using a spaced repetition system that reduces reviews to a minimum
• uses the FSRS algorithm for more efficient scheduling of reviews.

This is an Electron / React app.

src/main - for all code that is used by Electron's main process. src/renderer - for all code that is used by Electron's renderer process. src/knex - db migration and seeds. These are copied across to the build directory.
