I was fed up with my daily language learning workflow after immigrating to Spain: Translate app → manual Anki input → separate conjugation lookups for Spanish, so I built an app to solve that problem. Meet Leka: a Lovable-built web/PWA that unifies translate → FSRS flashcards → conjugations. It currently supports Spanish (Spain/LatAm), Italian, German, French, Portuguese, and Dutch, with more easily added in the future.

Now one flow: - Type or paste text → auto-translate + word extraction → FSRS cards - Integrated conjugator (full verb/noun tables, e.g., ser/estar) - Offline PWA - FSRS algorithm similar to Anki

Coming soon: - Different study modes - Voice to text mode - Image to text mode - Image <> translation mode
