Roman Lamsal's Swedish Vocabulator

I wanted to learn some swedish vocabs but was not satisfied with existing solutions for learning vocabs with index cards.

Thus, I created this application which consists of a backend (CRUD service for lectures, authentication and progress tracking by user) and a web UI for creating, editing and learning the saved lectures.

It's German

The code is of course in english, but the UI is entirely german.

Stack

The stack of the application includes:

• React

• plain javascript (if I find the time, I'll upgrade to typescript)

• Kotlin

• Spring Boot

• Spring Security

• Spring Web

• Nitrite as a simple yet powerful file based database

• Jackson

The UI

Go and checkout the UI's readme

How To Start

Build and start the application with the following properties set:

• nitrite.filepath
  • empty string: starts the nitrite database in-memory only, create for testing
  • non-empty string: filepath to the database file for nitrite
• authfile.filepath: Must be set to point to a JSON file containing "username:password" value pairs (e.g. {username: "superPassword"})

ToDo List

• redo the UI test-driven and with typescript
• support encryption of passwords in authfile
• more quizzes
