Show HN: I'm building an open source platform for studying Arabic (opens in new tab)

One thing that always frustrated me as an Arabic learning was how difficult textbooks are to use. You’re constantly flipping to the end to check translations or transliterations, which completely kills your focus.

So I started building an open-source platform that fixes this with interactive parallel texts, you can click or drag over any Arabic word to instantly see its meaning, transliteration, and grammar notes in context.

The platform also includes AI-generated stories and sentences, letting learners practice Arabic in natural, evolving contexts instead of static textbook examples. All content comes with accompanied dialect-specific audio.

Most resources focus only on Modern Standard Arabic, but that’s not what most people actually speak. There’s very little for dialects like Egyptian and Moroccan Arabic. To fill that gap, I leverages custom LLMs trained specifically on Egyptian and Moroccan dialects, since general-purpose models (like ChatGPT) often struggle with dialect-specific content.

If you’re interested in Arabic, dialects, or open-source edtech, I’d love your feedback
