A simple program for viewing HSK Vocabulary, supports Mandarin and Cantonese.
Programmed in Python using Tkinter.
The Chinese (Traditional, Hong Kong SAR) voice package must be installed in Windows for Cantonese text-to-speech to function properly. No voice packages are necessary for Mandarin text-to-speech if connected to the internet, otherwise for offline text-to-speech download either the Chinese (Simplified, China) or Chinese (Traditional, Taiwan) voice package.
The Noto Sans font with Hong Kong and Simplified Chinese families must be installed for best display.
You can install the fonts here: (also hyperlinked above)

This simple program allows you to view words from the HSK Vocabulary list.
You are able to select which HSK Levels to display words from, and choose between Standard Mandarin or Taiwanese pronunciation and Yale or Jyutping romanisations for Cantonese.
The program runs from a single executible file, hsk-vocabulary.exe, so no installation is required. When first opened, a folder is created in Documents\(ynot)\hsk-vocabulary to store the configuration files, you can delete them if uninstalling.
