Hey there! I'm Pablo (or hawkyre online) and I'm the founder of Root. This little project comes from my love of languages ever since I was young, learning some Japanese in English class at school (and getting scolded for it) and many others up until now (I've been learning Dutch now for 4 months and I've exclusively used Youtube and Root for it). Needless to say, I've been learning new languages pretty much all my life and I love it. The idea for Root comes from me wanting to create the next-generation vocabulary tracker, since I think many, many technologies could be applied to language learning that have yet not been explored and I would love to put my grain of sand in this world I love. As of now, Root has: - 📜 A great, filterable and easily editable table to track all your words - 🎴 Flashcards to practice all your vocabulary - 🎮 Wordmaps and Smart Quizzes, our own little practice games (check them out in the website!) - 📊 A pretty cool stats panel - 💭 The ability to generate new words for your deck via a prompt - 🤖 AI-based example generation - 🔴 Recording AND editing audio in the website (AI-generated audio will come very, very soon) - 📱A mobile version of the website that can be installed as a web app in your phone - 🧑‍💼A B2B course section where you'll be able to find your favorite language courses soon and import their vocabulary directly into your deck - 🤪And some more goodies that I'll let you find in the app :) And the list is growing very fast! I have a lot of ideas but I'm still a solo dev with a double university degree to finish, so things go as fast as I can. Regardless, I think the trajectory is right and it's just a matter of time. Please, feel free to ask any questions or tell me your experiences with language learning, I would love to hear them!! And I really hope you enjoy Root as much as I enjoy building it. PS. I want to give a huge thank you to Emma and Andrés who, despite not being around in the project anymore, have helped me make the website look really damn great and aligned the project towards a better direction more than once. They will truly be missed <3

Great job, congratulations on the launch & good luck to you today 🎉🦄
