I really like this idea. Simple interface, a single goal, it and it doesn't claim to be a full piano course. However, the user experience is incredibly frustrating for amateur players like myself. For some reason i have to hold down ea

Great job! A useful resource, and it works surprisingly well on mobile. I think you should try improve the SEO quite a bit because it looks better than most of what you'll find in a search engine at the moment.

I wish there was a directory of some sort for these "specialized LLM tools". But I guess the "circle of ai" means that these custom prompts and such will eventually just be regurgitated by the models themselves, so it mi

Just a simple app I created to to help myself with learning vocabulary contextually, and to give myself an opportunity to get instant feedback on mistakes I make in my target language. The idea is simple: Describe an image in your target la

Looks like a fun little project. Is it possible to program an alarm on that device? Does it have a speaker?

Wasn't there a joke about this happening in some movie when an English soccer team manager wrote the team name on the back of a box of cigarettes. Later he had to include the inclusion of two unknown players in the selection: The playe

I've found this to be the case with language learning. Its actually an enjoyable thing to do once you "get into the groove". Apps like duolingo are pretty easy for daily routines but the learning can be quite passive. I now f

I get the impression that there is a very good idea here but you are not selling it very well. I think a text-heavy explanation is better here than on the webpage itself. People on this site don't tend to have much patience when being

at the moment you need to log in but I will release an update soon to remove that barrier. English <---> Spanish is supported along with a few more.

Really like this. I had considered making something similar but I wasn't sure on the best approach. I think it might be nice to add an option for the user to toggle how detailed each response is. I think for a lot of moves, you just wa

I really like this idea.. but could this not be done for free using ollama and prepare-commit-msg? Seems like you could get a "good enough" solution together pretty easily without any cost.

how does one go about getting an invitation to that site? Looks interesting

Oh, and there is also a web app version, but it's not as full featured, or as reliable as the apps: https://app.snapalabra.com/

FYI: The features section of the website doesn't render correctly in dark-mode.

I think if you put more effort into catching the audio clearly these could be really cool background content to have on while studying etc..

Working on a visual language learning app called Snapalabra! The idea is simple: You look at an image and describe what you see in your target language. That's basically it! My reason for building it was that even though I can understa

You say things like Nebly creators save 5+ hours per week on average but you don't provide anything to back up that claim.. little things like that. I think most people would be more convinced by just seeing it in action rather than yo

This looks like it could be a great tool if it works well but the website maybe feels a little "scammy". I'm pretty sure even the guy's photo is AI... The image name is "efdfff99a_ChatGPTImageDec10202507_44_08PM&quo

This is great. UI could maybe do with a little work (better icons etc) but I've found it to be somewhat informative. Where is the data coming from?

The suggestions cover the next button even after one has been selected. It makes the UI pretty tricky to use on mobile. Otherwise its fun

Having to select an image compressor based on format seems like a redundant step.. Can the service not just automatically recognise the file format? Can you explain more about how the image gets compressed on the client side? Edit: I just t

Every time I try create anything, the lyrics are in German... Sounds great but is there some setting I can change so they are in English?
