Hey, many people here are crazy organized in their study and I'd like to do something like that but am unsure what to do. When I was using textbooks I was on a specific path which is good, then after that I went full immersion and Anki mining, then isolated kanji study BASED ON what I mined because writing them means looking at them longer and helps me with retention before they become second nature.
I WAS using kakitori-kun, a DS game to study kanji, but it's based on the old jouyou kanji order and I just reached a point where it's mostly N1 stuff and I still need to learn N2 things (I AM taking the exam which is why I go by that order), so I can't really use that as a main tool anymore and it sucks, because it has the kanji boxes that change color after you practice them, so you can SEE progress.
That's what I'm looking for, a way to have something like a spreadsheet and color the stuff I know, maybe even different colors based on how deeply I know the character. Is it necessary? No, but being self taught I'd like a semblance of tracked progress in the area I struggle with. I'm not using an Anki add on because I didn't start from zero so it would look like I don't know easier things and it would look weird. I'd like something I can fill in myself.
Is there something like a simple google sheet/excel I can just color in (based on JLPT preferably)? Or a program that does that I don't know about? It's not something I really touch in my day to day life so I'm looking for help 🙂
Update: I ended up downloading an image with all the kanji and marking what I know on Gimp. I'm planning on updating it every week or so, but the visual impact works so I think I can work with this
