#A flashcard app for drilling spellings of words

A flashcard app for spellings of words based on audio recordings. Press Tab to toggle to "teacher" mode where you can add words and record audio for them.

This repo is a fork of lines.love, an editor for plain text where you can also seamlessly insert line drawings. Designed above all to be easy to modify and give you early warning if your modifications break something.

#Getting started

Install LÖVE. It's just a 5MB download, open-source and extremely well-behaved. I'll assume below that you can invoke it using the love command, but that might vary depending on your OS.

Run this app from the terminal, passing its directory to LÖVE

#Hacking

To modify it live without restarting the app each time, download the driver app. Here's an example session using a different freewheeling app:

Some reference documentation on how to create your own apps.

To publish your changes:

• delete all files with a numeric prefix from the repo, and then
• move all files with a numeric prefix from the save directory to the repo.

#Keyboard shortcuts

• # to toggle between teacher and student mode

In teaching mode:

• ctrl+n to add a new word

Exclusively tested so far with a US keyboard layout. If you use a different layout, please let me know if things worked, or if you found anything amiss: http://akkartik.name/contact

#Known issues

• Both freewheeling apps and the driver for them currently benefit from being launched in terminal windows rather than by being clicked on in a desktop OS. See the driver app for details.
