What is it?
Lute (Learning Using Texts) is a self-hosted web application for learning foreign languages through reading. You import your own texts, and the app lets you look up words and track vocabulary as you read, so learning happens inside material you actually want to read.
The project is built with Python and Flask and is distributed as the third major version of the Lute codebase. Installation and usage are covered in the project's manual, which includes setup instructions and a user guide. The repository also includes a demo animation and links to a Discord community for users.
Lute suits learners who prefer working from authentic texts over flashcard-only study, and developers interested in language-learning tools can read the source to see how it is structured.
