YOMI is a daily game for learning Japanese hiragana, in the spirit of Wordle: one new word a day, six tries, and a spoiler-free result you can share. You spell each word on the Japanese 五十音 keyboard (with romaji labels), and after solving you get the reading, meaning, and an example sentence. Free, no login, no ads — installable as a PWA.

Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I'm the solo maker of YOMI. YOMI is a daily game for learning Japanese hiragana, in the spirit of Wordle: one new word a day, six tries, and a spoiler-free result to share. Why I built it: most beginner apps are heavy. I wanted the Wordle loop — ~60 seconds, no login, come back tomorrow — pointed at Japanese. A few things I focused on: • The keyboard is the Japanese 五十音 (fifty-sounds) chart with romaji labels, since learners don't have a Japanese IME. Dakuten (か→が) and small kana (や→ゃ) get their own keys — using the chart is itself practice. • New players get a 10-word warm-up before the once-a-day rhythm starts. • After you solve, you get the reading, meaning, and an example sentence. It's a free PWA (installable, works offline), no account, no ads. ~3,000 words across 10 difficulty "years," sourced from JMdict. I'd love feedback — especially from Japanese speakers and learners — on word choice and the keyboard UX. What would make you come back every day? 🙏
