Project: 'Root List'

[Bender]

salaam/peace all,

I am shortly going to be working on linking every root in PRL to its root page in corpus. To get an idea of what I mean please see the first few root entries on the Alif page
http//www.studyquran.co.uk/1_ALIF.htm

If anyone knows how to do this using a script rather than doing it manually, let me know. Otherwise I will need volunteers. It's easy, just cutting, pasting, typing. Easy but time consuming.

Salaam,

Thank you very much handshake

I am sorry I don't know anything about scripting and just little about computers in general, but I would love to help if you need any volunteers for the cutting-pasting-typing work. Just give me an easy manuel how to do it -[

btw do you have all the roots in a Word or Excel document, just the roots without anything else, thanks in advance.

Salaam,
Bender

peace all,

Some great news. Someone has developed an offline version of Project Root List, and it is very compact and simple to use.

Please see http//ompldr.org/vODZzdA

Spread the word!

If anyone knows how to convert this so it can be used on mobile devices, let me know.

[Wakas]

peace,

mmkhan, I agree. One step at a time

bender, begin by downloading a free html editor if you do not have one already, e.g.
http//www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/ (open, Window tab > select Composer)

Then pm me your email address so I can send you the html file to edit, with instructions.

Same goes for others.

As a side note, people are often under the impression it is difficult to contribute to these projects, but it is not. If you can manage to post on a forum, then you can pretty much help. It's all about pooling skills and resources. If one has time, that is a resource.

Update Project Root List has now been linked to Corpus, except letter Jiim, which should be completed shortly.

Thanks to the volunteers.

[Wakas]

peace all,

Update all root pages have now been linked to corpus.

Further, I am currently looking into having PRL converted into an app for iphone/android, so it can be used offline on mobiles.

It would be similar to this small program, which currently works on PCs http//ompldr.org/vODZzdA

If anyone has experience in this field, let me know. Also, it will likely cost about $200 to get done. StudyQuran will be accepting donations via paypal, send to info (AT) studyquran.co.uk

If anyone has suggestions for the app based on the above program, let me know asap.

Thanks for sharing,
May God support your endeavors peace

If the app goes ahead, I will need people to test it on their mobile devices.

Please send me a pm with your email address and the mobile device you have, i.e. android or ios.

Thanks.

[Wakas]

Good news, a demo of the android app has been developed. Just needing to test it now.

[Wakas]

salaam all,

After a little fine-tuning, here is the resultant app

www.studyquran.org/resources/ArabicDictionary.apk (less than 300kb file size)

Download to your android phone or tablet, install and test. Give feedback.

The root entries will then be completed to make it complete.

Edit
new link

Shalom Aleikhem Wakas,

w/salaam,

Thanks for the feedback Irvan.

SofA,
To publish an app for iOS (e.g. iphone, ipad) costs $100 per year, and takes longer, more form-filling etc. Plus there are development fees. Android is easier and cheaper.

I am still looking into the iphone/ipad option however.

[Wakas]

The completed app is now available for android phones/tablets

www.studyquran.org/resources/PRL.apk

Any mistakes/problems with it, let me know.

[Mazhar]

Words beginning with --just 253 in number---actual number still less if endings are not considered.

Words in Qur'aan beginning with Jeem

Great work Wakas, may God reward you.

yay hail

Masha Allah! Thank you so much! Thank Allah I jussst got an android phone last week! Hehe! Loving this app ).

This will help me while reading the quran on my new phone . Thanks again!

By the way is anyone aware there is a quran app in google play store called Submission that has Rashad khalifa and Edip yuksel's translation, among others? I thought that was cool. But it's the only one and the arabic letters aren't connected (not sure if its the app or my phone) . if anyone knows of another app similar to that with different translations, that'd help!

[god1quran1]

Downloaded the app on my Android tablet. Looks very usable. Good work. bravo

[Wakas]

God bless you Wakas sun

I have a problem with the app..I have an IPhone... -
I use always Apple actually.
Is there any chance to get your app for Apple systems too?

May God Mercifully enrich our knowledge

[Wakas]

We are considering it but it is much more expensive and lengthy process. If the android app goes well we will likely go ahead with an iOS app.
