I made a cool (i think) Japanese resource list website

A few months ago, I added a post here to share my recently created website but it wasn’t as good as I wished it should be. I improved the user experience both for desktop and mobile devices as I often use my smartphone when I’m studying in a café.

The main idea was to list the resources for my own education but I thought Japanese learners might also be interested by it. Also pardon my poor English. If you find any text that needs to be revised, please feel free to correct it.

The website: https://tareqitos.me (will soon change it to a more explicit name)

Please do not hesitate to text me or drop an email if you’d like to suggest a link or for anything else!

Happy learning!

  1. I love the design, and it is super complete!

    May I suggest you a couple of monolingual free online dictionaries?:

    https://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/ goo dicts. Uses デジタル大辞泉 for jp-jp and the Progressive for jp-en. Also good for kanji.

    https://thesaurus.weblio.jp/ weblio synonyms. The monolingual uses daijisen like Goo

    And

    https://kotobank.jp/ Kotobank has tons of quality bidirectional bilingual dicts for italian, spanish, portuguese, french, russian, chinese, english. Search engine is clunky but entries are filled with collocations and example sentences in both directions. I like it so as not to use always English (jisho)

  2. This is great. Even found a few things that were new to me (gaming podcast!!)

    Great resource – thx for sharing

  3. Thank you! I love how clean and logically organized it is.

    One suggestion: my original interpretation of the star was that it represents the most important or recommended resources in each category. If I hadn’t scrolled all the way to the bottom of the page, I wouldn’t have seen that it just indicates user-contributed recommendations. Unless it’s really important to you (or those who helped you) that the user recommendations are clearly marked, you may want to omit the star entirely and just keep the acknowledgments at the bottom of the page. Alternatively, you could use a different symbol and make its meaning clearer. This is just a super tiny usability suggestion, but it definitely would affect which resources I check out! I hope you will hear this feedback in the spirit of warmth and gratitude with which it is offered.
