Memory-hacking flash cards for vocabulary learning
I guess this would be a "technical" benchmark. I had minimal logging set up before, but this last week, to help track down some bugs, I finally bit the bullet and configured full logging for bot the frontend and backend of the project. I'm still using Loggly, as I was before, for all application logging, but I have now also configured Sentry.io for alerting of high-priority tickets. This helped me solve the bugs I was aiming for, and uncovered a few new issues I wasn't aware of.
The only user-visible change is that now some of the templates which were previously failing (and thus being skipped) are now working.
Baby steps :)
A functional (but very minimal) demo is now available at https://app.flashbacksrs.com
Anyone with a browser can log in and begin playing with the pre-defined flash cards for Dutch or Spanish.
This is still not a proper MVP, as the content is not especially useful. But it's good enough to use in a demo, for instance at a meetup or lightning talk.

Scratching my own itch. I've used several language apps for my own language study, and found them all lacking in different ways. This it my attempt at overcoming a number of problems.
