Asian Language Map

Introduction

This is a website to provide a linguistic overview on Asia, and hopefully share some knowledge about the language diversity over Asian countries.

The motivation behind this site is simple, I realized many people are not aware of the language diversity in Asia, especially as the most populated continent in the world, there is a great deal about the languages people spoke in Asia.

There are over 2,300 languages people speaking in Asia1, some countries has over 100 native languages, and some people from 1 country are all trilingual. Many interesting facts behind the Asian languages are not well-known to people.

The major function of this site is an interactive map, where user can click any country on the map, and a detail description of the country's language information will pop up on the side.

Bootstrap

Used Bootstrap 4.5 JS and CSS for styling, responsive design, and interactivity.

Some custom JS functions are used in the Asia map to display language information when change in country selection from user.

Notes

There are many aspects of this site can be further improved, possibly a backend server can create more functionality on the map.

Detail description of language are yet to be filled, as a credible source over all Asian languages is somewhat hard to find on the web.
