SilaLingo

Thai Language Learning app · silalingo.com

What it is

SilaLingo is a Thai language learning app I built, available as a web app with a companion Android app. It's aimed at learners who want a practical path into Thai — including the tones, one of the hardest parts for new learners — with downloadable study material to use offline.

What's implemented

Web app served by a Django backend (lessons and site content)
Companion Android app, downloadable directly from the site as an APK
Downloadable Thai tone rules cheatsheet (PNG) for offline reference

Technologies

Django — Python web framework: site, lesson content, accounts and progress tracking
WebSockets (Django Channels) — real-time interaction for exercises and feedback
HTMX — dynamic UI (quizzes, spaced repetition) with minimal JavaScript
Bootstrap — responsive layout and UI components
Redis — caching, sessions and background queues
PostgreSQL — primary database
nginx + Let's Encrypt — reverse proxy, TLS, static/media serving
Docker — containerized deployment on the VPS
