Description from store
[Features]
- Provides a link to the list of solutions of the current challenge, once you have submitted your answer.
- By default, the solutions are sorted by their similarity with your answer, but you can also switch to an alphabetical sort.
- Click on your answer to edit it. The similarity scores of the solutions will be refreshed accordingly.
- Remembers the lists of solutions of each challenge, to also make them available from the corresponding forum discussions.
- Displays the closest solution when the answer you submitted is incorrect.
- Outlines typos in answers to listening challenges.
- Strives to blend seamlessly in Duolingo's UI, and to be compatible with custom themes such as Darklingo++.
[Keyboard shortcuts]
After having submitted an answer to a challenge, use:
- [ s ] to open the solution window,
- [ ↑ ] / [ ↓ ] to scroll up / down the window content,
- [ Esc ] to close the solution window.
When a list of solutions is available, use:
- [ ← ] / [ → ] to navigate through the pages one by one,
- [ Ctrl ] + [ ← ] / [ → ] to go directly to the first / last page.
[Limitations]
- The lists of solutions are built by flattening the original solution graphs, which are not optimized against redundancies. This can lead to lists of solutions containing lots of very similar sentences.
- "Fill in the blank" challenges are based on "normal" translation challenges. The lists of solutions provided for them may therefore include sentences that do not match the blanks.
[Support]
Visit the development page of the extension (https://github.com/blmage/duolingo-solution-viewer) for more informations, screenshots, or if you have any support request!

- Works well on Android!

- A necessary extension but chugs cpu even outside of lessons. Edit: It must have been some kind of a bug. I had blamed this extension is because disabling it fixed it and enabling it brought it back, but the bug was short lived.
- Poofessor extra
- Good extension, but I wish there was a way to limit the amount of solutions you can view. At least on the japanese course, theres sometimes up to 100k different solutions and if I try to open them all my duolingo will freeze for a good while
- Peter Cross
- This is fantastic - a must have if you want to go beyond the basics that Duolingo lets you see.

- Thank you, Benoît Leulliette, I'm very glad you like this idea. Let me add my perspective. When the new course versions are missing many alternative translations and it takes half a year or even more to add them after they are reported, I'm sure you don't have to worry about criticism. And in this state they deploy the heart system? Did they fall on their heads? If only at least the practice lessons (to get hearts) didn't contain the stupid choose and complete tasks. Yes, SV sometimes shows answers which I think can't be accepted. So I think it would be easier to find the cause if the SV button was showed (and could be used) before the Duolingo CHECK button was clicked. I'm not afraid of confusions, it's up to students how much they want to risk. However, https://discord.com/channels/1171746721324339240/1171746775267295282 doesn't work for me. I get this message: NO TEXT CHANNELS - You find yourself in a strange place. You don't have access to any text channels, or there are none in this server. ====================================================== ORIGINAL COMMENTS: Dalibor Sep 7, 2023 Due to the gradual deployment of the hearts to the web, which is very detrimental to learning, I think it's time to start showing the Solution Viewer button the moment the answer TextBox (textarea) contains any correct answer. When the TextBox doesn't contain a recognized answer, it should disappear again. Or at least, for example, to change the color of the TextBox border to green (and back). In any case, Duolingo Solution Viewer is an excellent extension! ------------------------------------------------------------- Benoît Leulliette, Developer Sep 28, 2023 Thanks for your review! I will definitely play with your idea and see if we can make it work. Off the top of my head, though, there are two things I'm worried about: - This could be seen as a form of cheating and get some flack. - It might be hard to tell which answers are actually going to be accepted, since there's a lot going on behind the scenes. This could lead to some confusion. In any case, I'm still open to exploring this idea further. And if it turns out to be viable, maybe release it as part of another extension or userscript, to avoid some of these challenges. I'll keep you posted!

- Super helpful and the UI is really nice. Highly recommend
- Catalina Rios
- Works perfectly
- William Andrea
- So useful. Sometimes I'll use a different wording than Duolingo and make a mistake too, so their solution looks like I got the whole sentence wrong, but the "Closest solution" shows I wasn't so far off.

- The best extension/script you could possibly get for Duolingo, it is extremely useful, functional and clean--it is honestly a crime that this isn't already built in.

- john doe
- The solutions to view are too confusing, why not just make a sentence instead?

- Jue Wang
- It works tremendously well for the most time in the middle of lessons, but it stops working when I'm on a random forum/discussion page of a certain question through a URL. I hope the developer can see this and try to fix it :)

- Alyni Versite
- Very handy extension. However, I found that in some countries/regions Duolingo only works with www.duolingo.[country code] like www.duolingo.cn, not the generic domain like www.duolingo.com. Could the developer allow user to manually set different URLs? This extension only works with .com.
