Me and my friend (both high school students) built and run a full-stack portal site. Planning to add English support—any feedback?
Hi Reddit!
My friend and I are high school students from Japan, and the two of us have been developing and managing a portal site called "Tsurukame Portal" (tsurukamezan.net) together—from full-stack coding to server management.
It's currently only in Japanese, but we are planning to localize it into English to bring it to a global audience. Since the English version isn't live yet, we would love to get your feedback on the overall UI/UX and concept! (Feel free to use your browser's auto-translate to check it out!)
Key features of our site:
- News Summaries & Quizzes: Keeping track of interesting trends and interactive features.
- SciCirc (Science Circuit): This section is rapidly evolving! It’s a dedicated educational tech-blog where we break down not only science, chemistry, and toxicology, but also Junior High and High School Mathematics and English in an easy-to-understand way.
We are managing everything from the backend to the server infrastructure by ourselves as a small student team. We'd love to know:
- What do you think of the layout and concept?
- As an English speaker, which features (like SciCirc) would you be most interested in if it were translated?
Any advice, criticism, or ideas for localization would be awesome. Thanks!
