[Userscript] WaniKani Meaning/Reading Visual Aid

Hi guys, so here is a simple script for those of us who need a bit of extra visual aid to help us sort out if WK asks us for reading or for meaning.

Install the script here

It looks like this:
When asked for meaning

When asked for reading 読み方[よみかた]

This is still a beta version. Please let me know what you think. Maybe you have some good idea that we can include.

Thank you for this!
It makes my life soooo much easier :wink:
Could you add an option whether to use the original colors (white on black and black on white) or your new color scheme?
Thank you very much!

Hi! Glad it could be of help to you :wink:
If it’s only for that functionality, I think it is not worth the effort to develop a solution. If you ever want to switch to the original scheme it can easily be toggled on/off from Tampermonkey’s browser extension at will:

Thank you for your reply! But I didn’t mean to completely disable your script. I want to keep 読み方 in kana but just keep the original color scheme (just for aesthetic reasons).
I took a look at the code in the meantime though and… it was absolutely no problem to change it. Even with the very little coding knowledge I have.
Thank you!
