Here I'll highlight a handful of tools I've made for helping Anglophones learn Finnish. They do a passable job at showing my approach to software engineering in practice, which is to say, terrible but gets the job done:
https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1149950470 https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1149950470 - Once called the best Finnish vocabulary flashcard deck on the Internet by someone who wasn't me. What an honor!
https://github.com/hiAndrewQuinn/finstem https://github.com/hiAndrewQuinn/finstem - A simple CLI tool that un-declines/un-conjugates Finnish words, so you can look up their dictionary forms.
https://hiandrewquinn.github.io/selkouutiset-archive/ https://hiandrewquinn.github.io/selkouutiset-archive/ - A daily, static, chronological archive of the Finnish BBC'w Simple Finnish news broadcast plus an accompanying English auto translation for every page.
https://github.com/Selkouutiset-Archive/selkokortti https://github.com/Selkouutiset-Archive/selkokortti - generate Finnish-English sentence Anki flashcards from the aforementioned archive. Every six months on the solstice I run this myself and release a new deck, containing the usually ~5000 new sentences of the six months prior.
I have a web app cooking that extends the work I started with finstem into a personal vocabulary training machine, but I've never run a public facing web app for myself before so I'm terrified of the cybersecurity sins I'm almost certainly making. Someday!
