Obenkyobo, An application to help you learn japanese

What is it then?

Obenkyobo is an application for kyobo eReaders designed to help you memorize Hiraganas, Katakanas, Kanjis, etc. It should in theory be fully compatible with any Kyobo eReader (please report result on your device). This is only meant to be a learning aid that I'm dogfooding. I'm in no way a professional japanese teacher, therefore if you spot an error please report it to me ASAP.

It features :
  • Hiragana/Katakana <-> Romanji (and vice versa) customizable MCQ
  • Vocabulary(Kanji/Romanji) <-> Romanji (and vice versa) customizable MCQ
  • Vocabulary sheet system (create your owns sheets, hide columns, hide cells, randomize content, change number of row per page, etc)
  • Weighted random / "Learning Score" System to keep MCQ more entertaining/efficient
  • Quality of Life features such as; multiple fonts, font settings, screen options (Luminosity/Tint) support, physical buttons support, etc
  • Sleep Support
  • Wifi support

What does it look like?



How to install it ?

You'll need to install a "launcher" beforehand. Common options are :Once you're done installing at least one of those two. Please :And voilą ! You should now have a "Obenkyobo !" NickelMenu entry at the bottom right corner of your ereader's "home screen" and a new "book" in your library to open with KfMon.

If you're only updating Obenkyobo, you can install the "light" version of the archive instead Obenkyobo_Light_Release_*.*.*.zip. This version is stripped from qt packages you already installed with the previous version and should work fine for updating except if told otherwise.

More informations, How to create my vocabulary sheets ? Source Code, Known Issues, etc

Everything should be found on Obenkyobo's github page

Thanks

Big thank you to OfficerAction, NiLuJe and NiMa for their efforts on their dev tools and helping me figuring some stuff out.

Mandatory laius, program is distributed "as is", I'm in no way responsible if your device catch on fire, your milk turns bad, etc
