In their own words
Learning with Texts
Learning with Texts (LWT) is a language-learning web app for reading texts you bring and building vocabulary from them. It divides uploaded texts into sentences and words, then shows saved terms and their learning status in later readings. You can save words or expressions of two to nine words, along with translations, optional romanization, and an example sentence. Practice options include term tests, context-based tests, Massive-Context Cloze Deletion tests, and a statistics page. LWT can associate an MP3 audio URL with a text for listening while you read, but it has no audio-file import or upload function. Dictionary links are configurable; terms can be imported from CSV or TSV, exported as TSV, or sent to Anki for cloze tests. LWT is free, with offline access and interactive practice listed. It requires a modern browser and a local web and database server with PHP. Installation instructions cover Windows, macOS, and Linux, though the maker says its macOS instructions and app could not be tested. Texts and terms using Unicode characters above U+FFFF are unsupported.
