Oh I know, but only 3, they are all very nice, a nice remake, really well done, chapeau !
...but you need special tools to make/edit them. And the "contact" to have the tools isn't replying...
If you know who they are, or who made the Swedish stories, I can try again...

Indeed, first I considered to make a full set of Swedish stories there,
... but even If I had the tools, here on duome we are fine with

• just some simple html ...
• we can manage the stories the way we want,
• we make them searcheable/findeable as the content is indexed
• etc etc. so Apart from the looks, only advantages to stay "independent" with Duome

Also, after what Duolingo has done (read not done) for its forum community,
personally I don't feel the need to create Duolingo Story remakes...

I prefer to focus on content, and on the fact that some duome members can collaborate in a small ad-hoc group to create them, rather than focus on compatibility with Duolingo.

Because the aim of Stories, whatever the looks or style, is that a well defined "context" is created for sentences on which questions are asked. That's the real essence of the stories.

That in contrast to "loose"/"stand-alone" sentences as in the Duolingo exercises, sentences which had no context, and thus too often lead to never-ending discussions about ambiguity in either the From or To part of the "valid" answers.

But that said, I am quite a visual guy too, and I'd like a bit more "interaction" and "animation" in the new Swedish Stories collection, if I had the tools to do so. So any hints are welcome!

There are some free/public tools available too. I am experimenting with Hot Potatoes https://hotpot.uvic.ca/ ... a free lesson/quizz/multiple-choice/... creation tool, used by official instances too, universities, schools, etc. This tool can also be fully customized in terms of colors and style, to match the "theme" of the main site in which the generated self-sustaining html is to be integrated.

Another nice toolset is https://learningapps.org/ ... all interactivity is pre-fab with templates to choose from, remains just to fill the contents. Interface in many "From" languages...

And in the Dutch teaching world, KlasCement is famous also =< new site https://www.oefen.be/

The contacts are @Randriano and @Tatyana650946, but since the DL forum was closed, the only way to contact them is Discord, which I couldn't register to. Did you try the Discord channel mentioned in their page?

I'll try, Thx.
Still I'd prefer using and relying on tools which are much wider spread, established, used "worldwide"
