Anki Vocab Tool

About

Anki Vocab Tool is a powerful, streamlined utility designed to help Japanese learners build their vocabulary decks faster than ever. By searching for a word, the tool instantly fetches all essential data—including Reading, Furigana, Meaning, Example Sentences (which you can choose from 5 example sentences), and Translations—allowing you to create perfectly formatted Anki cards in seconds.

However, in order for the extension and the tool itself to work the following conditions has to be met:

1. Anki Must Be Running: The Anki desktop application must be open on your computer while using this tool.

2. AnkiConnect Installed: You must have the AnkiConnect add-on installed in your Anki application. Without this, the extension cannot communicate with your collection.

3. Correct Configuration: After installing this extension, click the Settings gear icon in the popup. You must enter the exact names of your existing Anki Deck and Note Type (e.g., "Japanese" and "Basic"). If these names do not match your Anki collection exactly, the extension will be unable to add cards.

Once all of those conditions are met, you can go ahead and visit the website where the tool is being used which is https://hatemjp.github.io/AnkiVocab/
