Random pet project site I made for young children: https://animalsounds.app/
It shows a bunch of animals, and allows the child to click on them, hear the animal name, the sound the animal makes, and (optionally) learn to use a mobile keyboard, with the idea being it can help kids learn in a slightly simplified interface.
It works for English or Japanese, and is meant to be ‘installed’ on phone (make a permanent link on mobile desktop). May still needs some sprucing up.
Code is [here](https://github.com/rollie42/animal-sounds) if anyone is curious. Tech stack is GCP cloud functions + text-to-voice API for the names and letter pronunciation, and Cloud Build for containerized auto-scaling deployment. Front end is all react + JS, with just a few common helper libraries.

The peacock sound scared me hahaha. Had a bit of a play with it, I’ve found sometimes once I’ve clicked on the correct characters, it won’t proceed. I’m on chrome on PC though, not using mobile.
Really cute idea, I could see myself using this just as a fun way to get my animal vocab up 🙂
