Finnlingo

Duolingo-like application for learning Finnish.

The app was created because Finnish was not being accepted to Duolingo Incubator for a very long time despite of having a lot of course contributor volunteers.

See more details in the "Finnish on Duolingo" Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/finnishonduolingo/

Update: at last, Finnish is in the Incubator! :)

Working version of the app with some test content can be found here: https://finnlingo.herokuapp.com You can create your own courses or use existing courses in the app. It might be possible to create courses for other languages than Finnish too.

App is created with Vue.js and Meteor.js using TypeScript. Application code is found under /app/components and /app/lib. Database structure described in /app/lib/Db.ts.

Development setup:

1. Install Meteor
2. Fork
3. git clone https://github.com/<your username>/finnlingo.git
4. meteor npm install
5. Create a FB app (for authentication) at https://developers.facebook.com and put app id and secret into /app/components/main/server/main.ts.
6. meteor
7. If everything is fine, the app should be accessible at http://localhost:3000

Note: Do not commit your FB app id and secret! You can use git update-index --assume-unchanged /app/components/main/server/main.ts to achieve this.
