The Slovene language has 56 dialects, grouped into 7 dialect groups. A lot of literature on Slovene dialects already exists in physical form, but the goal of this thesis was to develop an interesting, interactive web application which would let its users see all the dialects on a map, read their characteristics and listen to their sound recordings. In addition, an administrative part was created to allow the addition of more examples.
The front end part was developed using technologies such as HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, Google Maps and the AngularJS framework. The back end was created using the PHP language and the MySQL database.
Consequently we created the first application of this kind for Slovenian dialects.
