[Retired] A desktop e-book reader for language learners
A desktop e-book reader for language learners intended to help learning from reading by providing machine translations (DeepL, Google) as well as human-translated example sentences (Tatoeba, Reverso Context). For Linux, macOS and Windows.
This project has been retired in 2018. (It required a substantial rewrite due to the fundamentally flawed way in which it approached loading and rendering documents, and at the same time the author has lost use for it, having found an e-reader sufficient for his learning purposes and more comfortable to use).
If you are looking for similar software, please give Coditra a look. It is intended for translation work, but it has similar functionality to Lisons! and can also be useful for learning through reading.
git clone https://github.com/fauu/lisons.git
cd lisons
yarn install
yarn build:prod
yarn dist:<platform>
(where <platform> = linux | macos | windows
)** Might require additional tools. Please consult electron-builder documentation.
