RicePaper

Rice Paper Tray App

Interactive wallpaper scheduler and Word-of-The-Day assistant for japanese language learning.

What is it?

Rice Paper is a productivity tool to help you learn Japanese vocabulary by incorporating new words into your desktop wallpaper. With Rice Paper, you can choose a list of words and see your desktop update and rotate through images with ease!

[UPDATE] January 2023

The original code is now open source.

[UPDATE] January 2021

I have made the Rice Paper App a Free App on the App Store for a limited time. If you like the App or find it useful somehow, please consider rating it, sharing it with a fellow Japanese learner, or if you feel generous, even buying me a cup of coffee ☕️ https://www.paypal.me/felipemullen

Custom Lists

Using a custom list is easy. Simply create a text file with one word per line, and load it into Rice Paper.

For example, let's say I wanted to rotate through the numbers 1 to 10. I would create a file called Numbers.txt and paste the following content:

一
二
三
四
五
六
七
八
九
十

Then all I have to do is open up Rice Paper and load Numbers.txt as a custom word list! 👏
