Japanese Grind is a web application designed to help users learn Japanese through flashcard-based training.
This project is part of a larger Japanese learning ecosystem that consists of two separate but connected applications.
Originally, the project started as JapanEasy, a Vite-based application focused on learning Japanese writing systems and dictionary functionality.
During development, I decided to migrate to Next.js to build a more scalable and structured frontend. This led to the creation of a new project called Japanese Grind, which became the main application for vocabulary learning and the central user experience.
Instead of rewriting everything from scratch, I kept the original JapanEasy (Vite) project as a separate repository because it was already stable, functional, and well-optimized.
As a result, both applications now work together as one ecosystem.
The system is split into two repositories that form a complete Japanese learning platform:

Built with Next.js, this application focuses on:
- Main menu and navigation
- Flashcards for learning the 5000 most frequent Japanese words

👉 https://nihon-go-kaizen.web.app
Built with Vite, this application focuses on:
- Hiragana learning
- Katakana learning
- Japanese dictionary functionality
