LinguaBook - React app for learning Basic English
Under the hood it is heavily using my Just-in-Time scraper (my another open source project). This scrapper parses HTML pages from multiple sources in the browser and the parsed results are displayed on the page.

Untranslatable
Very interesting they were funded from Kickstarter! 292 backers at 10k€. I assumed you needed quite the following for Kickstarter to work...
And it looks like they do. 49k followers on Facebook and 16k on Instagram. Not sure how far back these go, but looks like very "shareable" content, where they would take I translatable words and make little funny pictures or memes or other intriguing things and post them. Lots of interaction comments/reaction-wise
Timeline-wise this was backed on Kickstarter in 2020. Site launched in summer 2020. The creator was very active on Kickstarter working on communicating and updating the community with what was going on (until the end there).
Also seems to have a Patreon, and worked itself into other places like https://github.com/theimpossibleastronaut/awesome-linguistic...
