Tools that serve Arabic

Tools that serve Arabic in one of its parts rather than teach it: dictionaries and corpora, word-by-word Quran readers, writing, calligraphy, vowelling and typing tools, and aids for memorising and conjugation. Each was checked against its official site or app-store listing.

These are tools, not courses: learners, teachers and researchers use them alongside their study. Anything whose aim is to teach Arabic is under «Apps and websites». Prices are not given — only free or paid.
