Worth noticing
The creator says Claude wrote much of the code, and explains that this is part of why the app has no ads, account, or data collection.

Field notes

The homepage describes a level test followed by daily vocabulary, example sentences, and spaced review, with the learner able to change level rather than restart from the beginning. It lists pinyin, tone practice, microphone pronunciation, and stroke order for more than 2,000 characters; the browser preview notes that its tones are synthetic, while the app uses recorded voices. The creator says Claude wrote much of the code and links to the project's GitHub and license information.
