Hello! I was wondering if it would be possible to import the Serbo-Croatian wiktionary? I would do it myself but am not sure how to get it into the correct format.

Hi!

I wanted to add support for kaikki wiktionaries for a while, just didn't get there yet. I am going to work on other stuff for a while.

You can import dictionaries into linguacafe in .csv format. If you write a script that converts kaikki's json to a .csv, you can import it into linguacafe.

Serbo-Croatian is also not supported in linguacafe currently. You can probably use Croatian for it, but the generated lemmas would probably be incorrect.
