Otis

Otis is a learning app I've built for myself that currently focuses on Latin, but will be customizable in the future. Among the features are not only flash cards and other vocabulary learning modes, but also explanations of various grammatical constructs used in Latin, as well as the grammar forms themselves. These can also be trained in another learning mode.

Only Latin - German according to the Austrian curriculum (10th - 11th grade) is currently supported.

To use Otis, you need a Mac with Xcode installed. Follow these steps to get started:

1. Clone this repository to your local machine.

    // Add new model here
  ]
}
