Are there any useful plugins for KaniWani?

Hey all
Just wondering if there was any useful plugins/extension/scripts for KW similar to WKs.
Tried searching to no avail.
Cheers!

KaniWani is itself a thing that was written using the WaniKani API, so it’s like an giant extension that lives on its own website. I’m not sure how easy it would be for him to make extensions work for it in light of that.

But options and improvements are often added.

Kaniwani

• Dark Style by @RayderBlitz: A dark style for Kaniwani with ceartain elements of customisation available.

• Dark Design by Luke-Filewalker: A basic dark style for Kaniwani. Similar to the Dark Material style for Wanikani by the same author.

• KaniWani Custom/Dark Style by @RayderBlitz: changes color scheme on Tadgh11’s webapp KaniWani.

• KaniWani by Tadgh11: Reverse WaniKani. Prompts you with English for the vocab in Japanese. uses SRS and your API key.

  • KaniWani Audio by synecdoche: Userscript for KaniWani. Plays the original audio from WaniKani when you get a review item correct, to help reinforce pronunciation.

  • Anki Mode by @Mempo: Are you using Kaniwani but really really want Anki mode, just like in regular (enhanced) Wanikani? Solved that.

It seems that one could develop userscripts if they wanted to, because you can query the KaniWani API:

You can generate a token:

curl --request POST \
  --url https://kaniwani.com/api/v1/auth/login/ \
  --header 'content-type: application/json' \
  --data '{
	"username": "myusername",
	"password": "mypassword"
}'

Edit: I do intend on making proper user-generated tokens later on, once i expose the API publicly. But feel free to play around until then

Yeah there is a full-on API, which is what the KW frontend uses to show you…well, kaniwani as you know it. Kaniwani is two fully distinct components, the frontend and the backend. The backend is a (mostly) restful API. You are free to develop extensions/plugins against it. You can see autogenerated documentation here: http://kaniwani.com/docs/ . Some of it may be incorrect, but like I said, this is autogenerated.

I created a small script that adds a blurred hint of the expected answer to a review question to differentiate the synonyms that WK likes to put on the same level.

KW Blur (Experimental Beta Version 0.9 ) by acm This is a small script to improve the KaniWani experience. It adds a heavily blurred version of the kanji solution to the review question. The items on the same WK level often have similar meanings, so this script should help to to figure out if the…

It seems to be stable now, and reduced my desire to smash my head against the wall for mixing up feeling, feeling, and feeling down to Apprentice 1 again.
