emacs-habitica VS anki-editor

emacs-habitica was the first proper emacs extension I wrote. For your question, it should be doable to add a gamification layer to org-habits but would have to check the code.

Also, I sometimes use flashcards, they really help me to remember the material. I am creating flashcards using a package called anki-edior. My flashcards are my notes. I don't need to go somewhere else to search through my flashcards.

If you are interested in the spaced-repetition learning approach, you can try org-drill and you will use Emacs for notes production and repetition; if, like me, you prefer integrating your workflow with Anki, there's anki-editor, "a minor mode for making Anki cards with Org": the repo here. This way, you will create notes in Emacs but the repetition will be done in Anki (which means you can use Ankidroid on your phone for studying what you wrote in Emacs)

I do however create all my decks in Emacs' Org mode using louietan/anki-editor and export to Anki via the plugin FooSoft/anki-connect. This way I never worry about my decks getting corrupted. I actually just have one large deck but anki-editor allows me to separate my deck into separate org files which is convenient.

Sure. I write my cards in Emacs' Org mode and specifically the louietan/anki-editor minor mode. Org mode is a markup file format like markdown (but superior IMHO as it is more intuitive). With anki-editor I can export my plaintext cards to HTML by Org-mode’s HTML export backend (it has many others) with specific markers (e.g. latex) translated to Anki style. I do this with Anki open and the Anki-Connect plugin installed. It is this plugin that allows the anki-editor to push the cards to Anki. Within Anki I use the provided sync function to sync my cards with my phone. I only ever edit the cards via Emacs as anki-editor only pushes to Anki it does not pull from it.

A blog post would be much more useful for this kind of thing. Here's a similar post using anki-editor:

I write my cards in plaintext (Emacs Org mode via anki-editor) and push them to Anki via anki-connect. The advantages for me are:

create Anki cards with Emac's anki-editor and push them to Anki with anki-connect. There is also a markdown equivalent of anki-editor if you prefer that format plus packages to perform your SRS within Emacs itself such as org-drill, org-fc and pamparam.

Here's my use case: I'm maintaining Anki notes in my Org files using the anki-editor package. Every few hours during the day, I like to sync my Anki notes from Emacs to Anki using the following code:

For learning: I put the ones I can't "just" remember into Anki, a FOSS flashcard system based on spaced repetition (for example, the front of a card would be "emacs org: how do you toggle a checkbox?", and the back would be "C-c C-x C-b"). I use anki-editor-mode to make this faster. Then I do an Anki review every day.
