This page is updated from time to time, not frequently, not regularly. โ€œBut how do I know what you have changed since the last time I come here?โ€ Try this: hover your mouse over โ€œActionsโ€ in the upper right corner of this page, click on โ€œhistoryโ€, select the current and the version you saw last time, click on โ€œCompare selected versionsโ€.


It would be great if you pay a visit to every site on the list. Don't lose your curiosity.
Resources with the following features will be given a little priority for each feature:


If you want to do creative work to help others to learn languages and to know about cultures, please visit [[Language/Multiple-languages/Culture/Productivity-tools-for-polyglots]].
*multilingual user interface;


It is not recommended to put some banner like โ€œfeatured in Polyglot Clubโ€ on your website, because this list is dynamic.
*open source;


It is highly recommended to have privacy protections on. An open-source website on privacy: https://privacyguides.org/
*no need to register.


=== Tips ===
This page is updated from time to time, not frequently, not regularly.
Some programs require the use of command-line. There is an article about [https://www.lifewire.com/how-to-open-command-prompt-2618089 how to do it on Windows]. If you use Linux, you may use [https://sites.google.com/site/pleyadestest/david/projects/sakura Sakura], for its lightweight being and good Unicode support; If you want to customise the font in command line on Windows, you can use [https://conemu.github.io/ ConEmu].


Some programs split words in a sentence with spaces. In this case, texts in Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese and other languages need a [https://polyglotclub.com/wiki/Language/Multiple-languages/Culture/Introduction-to-some-language-tools#Word_segmentation word segmentation].
It would be better if you pay a visit to every site of the list. Don't lose your curiosity due to my blah.


The customisation of some programs require a text editor. It is recommended to use [https://www.geany.org/ Geany], because it is lightweight and has useful shortcuts like โ€œCtrl + Dโ€ to duplicate a line.
Please also take a look at [[:Category:Free-Resources]] to find resources for specific languages.


See if you are downloading the binary file or the source code. Unless its language doesn't require compilation, you would need to build the program on your own with the source code. Links to download binaries (built programs) are elsewhere like โ€œReleasesโ€ or links in the README.MD file. If you see there are multiple links in โ€œReleasesโ€, select the link with your corresponding operating system, CPU architecture and other clues in its filename. The โ€œamd64โ€ and โ€œx86_64โ€ have minor differences and are usually considered the same when describing a binary. โ€œmd5โ€, โ€œsha256โ€, โ€œsha512โ€, etc. are checksum formats, which can be used to check the integrity of the downloaded file. You can use the open-source tool [https://gtkhash.org/ GtkHash] to check the integrity of the files with the same name of the checksum files.
== Keyboard ==


If you see SourceForge, you may simply click on the โ€œDownloadโ€ button. In some cases, the downloaded file is not what you want. Then you need to find it out in โ€œFilesโ€.

This one supports a lot of languages in Latin script, but it means to learn to type again. It is worth it.


If you don't see an executable file in the program, then you may have to run it in another way:

JavaScript and some other languages support running something with two programs: a server and a client. You need to start the server, then access the server with the client.
Note that the download link on the home page is "Caps Lock Unchanged". The idea of replacing Caps Lock with Backspace is great because of its convenience, but having it unchanged is generally better because it's punitive to press this button, urging you to make fewer misspellings.


JavaScript programs often utilise Electron.js to have cross-platform support easily, which integrates a Chromium in every program and occupies a lot of resources.
There is a flaw of no "โ€ž" or "โ€š", you can replace "รท" and "ร—" with them.


Java relies on a virtual machine, which is an emulator of a computer system and requires some more system resources.
*For Windows users, you can use https://github.com/randyrants/sharpkeys/releases.


See if the program is updated recently. Outdated programs may be no longer reliable, because they may rely on something else, like another program or a webpage, which can become invalid with the change of time. It may also contain security loopholes that were not discovered at that time and discovered now.
*For macX users, https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/ will help.


Political activism can motivate people to cause unexpected damage, like [https://securityaffairs.co/129174/hacking/node-ipc-npm-package-sabotage.html node-ipc by RIAEvangelist on GitHub].
*For Linux users, a guidance is http://rlog.rgtti.com/2014/05/01/how-to-modify-a-keyboard-layout-in-linux/.


=== Resource Selection Criteria ===
People think it's uncomfortable to HE with it, because you need to stretch you index finger and shrink your middle finger. I type E with my ring finger in this case.
To be listed on this page, resources should possess at least one of the following characteristics:


# be rich in '''FREE''' content (not just a trial or not fulfilling the need in the free part), and the free content is mostly accurate, and the free content is not all covered by other free ones;
=== https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kl.ime.oh ===
# be made with a unique, good idea;
It is lightweight and supports many languages, with many keyboard layouts. But it has problems, too.
# has no better alternatives.


Resources possessing the following characteristics will be given disadvantage:
== Basic Course ==


# propagate specific political or religious ideas without possibility of discussion.
=== https://www.duolingo.com/ ===
The best free online language courses. It is actually a collection of exercises instead of real courses. Its web version has "tips and note". Don't neglect their other products.


Resources with the following features will be given a little priority:
=== https://fsi-languages.yojik.eu/ ===
Courses of Foreign Service Institute, Defense Language Institute, Peace-Corps. FSI is initially aimed for middle-aged officials, so maybe not everyone likes it.


# available offline;
=== https://www.lingodeer.com/ ===
# available on multiple platforms;
A promising challenger of Duolingo.
# multilingual user interface;
# lightweight (including โ€œwritten in Cโ€);
# open source;
# privacy-friendly (including โ€œregistration not requiredโ€).
