KongMing - website for learning Chinese

This web application follows the example of Duolingo language-learning website and its success in bringing people opportunity to easily learn language with practical examples:

  • User can create an account to track his progress
  • Learning material is organized into lessons with specific topics
  • Every lesson is a set of exercises, each of them provides student with new information or test his knowledge
  • Lessons are organized in tree hierarchy - user can start from basic topics and progress to more advanced ones

The base language is English.

Technologies used:

  • Django 1.8
  • jQuery
  • Bootstrap
  • MySQL

The project core is structured into several Django apps:

  • words - maintains all the words used by the site, handles access to translation API and caches words in database
  • translations - holds all the texts (words, sentences, grammar structures examples) which are translated by user
  • lessons
  • exercises - contains models for all the exercises types and API to prepare and check them
  • learn - controls the process of learning by presenting lessons and taking user through the lesson flow
