I've been sporadically working on a passion-project web app that displays a map of where my family's native language is spoken and where different dialectal variations of a user-supplied word are spoken.

This all started when I was first learning the language and was having a lot of trouble understanding different dialects, I want to make sure this is not a problem for future learners!
