This week the plan is to make the confirmation page working after login and maybe get the login screen to behave correctly when data fetching starts (edited).
3.07.2019 – 10.07.2019
Currently we are dealing with grammatical base, dictionary that will be connected with on-click grammar explanations and allow you to read more detailed explanation of each grammatical construction. We are nearly there, there seem to be small bug preventing them to be accepted by backend but it should be resolved soon.
We was also working to make login work. The bugfix/login_fix makes the login work~ish, it is possible to login but any refresh or manual action of rewriting different page address.
What is more, we gave our login page a bit of visual update. Next in the pipeline are: translation creator, persistant login (saved in cookies), and word parser and uploader from dictionary.
What have we done till now
After around 1 year of not posting new content, we are getting ready to get back.
When we launched the website in November 2017, although in the beginning we received a lot of support and things were going well, we weren’t able to scale on demend. Due to the fact, that the website (made just with WordPress) were not able to deal with such a high traffic and we were not able to deliver content on scale.
We learnt from our mistakes, gathered a team of coders and are currently working on a new platform.
Unfortunately, we will still not be adding new manga for a while… If you were looking forward to seeing new content – we are really sorry for not being able to meet your expectations and hope that new website will be enough to compensate for it.
If you are interested in the website’s development process, what kind of things we are working now and what kind of problems we are dealing with, please be updated since we will be getting back to you regularly once per week.
Here you can take a peek at the current test app under developemnt.
Besides the ability to deliver more content and handle bigger traffic, there will be some additional features such as:
- Dictionary of words and grammatical constructions that appears in on-click explanations in manga. Thanks to that you will be able to read more detailed explanation and see more example of word / grammatical construction you wil be interested in.
- Words and grammatical constructions classified according to JLPT level.
