What is this?
Enjoy is an AI-powered learning companion built around the idea that AI is the best foreign-language teacher and Enjoy is its best teaching assistant. It's the software side of the long-running 'everyone-can-use-english' (人人都能用英语) project, which also includes two companion books on learning methodology.
Is Enjoy a standalone app or just a book/blog?
It's a real software product with a web app, a Chrome browser extension, and an upcoming desktop app, plus two companion books ('一千小时' and '人人都能用英语') that explain the learning philosophy behind it.
How do I start using Enjoy?
Use the new web version directly online, or install the Chrome browser extension from the Chrome Web Store to use Enjoy while watching YouTube and Netflix.
Do I need anything special to run Enjoy on YouTube or Netflix?
Just the Chrome browser extension installed from the Chrome Web Store - it's built to work specifically on YouTube and Netflix video pages.
Is the desktop app ready to use yet?
Not yet - the desktop version is still being built as a wrapper and enhancement around the web app, with no release date given in the README.
Who is this project really for?
Chinese speakers trying to learn English, which is reflected both in the project name 'everyone can use English' and in the Chinese-language companion books on speaking, pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar.
What are the two companion books about?
'一千小时' (2024) covers training tasks, voice shaping, what happens in the brain while learning, and self-training methods; '人人都能用英语' (2010) walks through speaking, pronunciation, reading aloud, dictionary use, grammar, and intensive reading.
Why build Enjoy around AI instead of a traditional course?
The author's premise is that AI is now the best foreign-language teacher available, so Enjoy is designed purely to be the best possible assistant that helps learners make use of that AI teacher.
Can I practice English while streaming shows?
Yes - the Chrome extension is built specifically to layer onto YouTube and Netflix, letting you practice English directly while watching video content there.
