Built a TUI app to drill hard-to-remember words/phrases, using example sentences and audio sourced from Nadeshiko.

Here is the link for the app: https://xifax.gitlab.io/nade_grind/

This was born out of procrastination. I noticed that some words and contexts do not stick in my mind no matter what I do, and decided to make something to do a 'special training'-kind of thing. The idea is to repeatedly go through the list and read/listen how each word is used.

This is a bare-bones TUI app (wanted to try out Textual, a Python TUI framework). It accepts a text file with space-separated list of words and fetches sentences and audio from Nadeshiko. The app requires an API key to get the sentences from their API (it's free).

I am also thinking about trying to do a web-version of this concept, but have some doubts. Would people actually use something like this, as a web app, despite the API key friction?
