"In 2025, TypeScript became the most-used language on GitHub, surpassing both JavaScript and Python for the first time "

Thank you for this amazing book! I always wanted to learn more about the technological foundations that I rely on as web developer (or engineer, as you put it).

I am just curious, what was the process that lead you to decide to use Python to implement the browser? I feel like JavaScript via node would have offered a more related programming experience.

This looks great, I love the design! Especially your solution of "importing" known vocabulary by simply scrolling through word lists - very smart and intuitive!

Although it would be even better (for me) if one were able to import their Anki decks and have your app figure out the level of "competency" for each word. This is the biggest gripe I have with adopting a new language learning app: Having to re-learn vocabulary that I am already 100% confident in.

Also, I would love to be notified when the Spanish version comes around - is there any way for that?


Nice idea - although I hate having to start from scratch and having to "train" the system to know my level and vocabulary. I think it's a bummer that it's not common to be be able to exchange vocabulary lists between apps.
