flashcards-obsidian VS anki

There's an Obsidian plugin for Anki -- https://github.com/reuseman/flashcards-obsidian

It connects with your Anki desktop app. You create notes in Obsidian in a specific format, and they get converted to Anki flashcards. This way your flashcard creation process becomes much easier if you already use Obsidian for note-taking.

I want to create something like flashcard. Not like the usual flashcard with single line question and answer. I have already tried the famous plugins like obsidian-spaced-repetition, obsidian-recall and flashcards-obsidian. But all of them are designed to have multiple flashcards in a single note. Though spaced repetition plugin display my files, everything below white lines are discarded. Im looking for a solution where i can use my existing atomic notes as flashcards. Title of the note should be in the front side of the card and content in the back side. And it should use a similar algorithm and interface used by plugins like spaced repetition. obsidian-smart-random-note This is the only plugin close to what im looking. Unfortunately, it doesn't support Anki algorithm. How can i configure my atomic notes to be severed as flashcards?

I've personally settled on obsidian-flashcards as it allows me to write notes using standard syntax without too much extra markup, but the downside is that it litters block anchors all over the place and once in a while I'll trigger a bug that requires using the console to resolve. Major respect to all the plugin authors that open sourced their hard work -- I just wish that the overall flashcard experience was a bit more polished.

It would be nice to have a comparison between your project and obsidian-flashcards. The latter looks semi-abandoned on github, so you have a good chance to become the de-facto standard on obsidian if you can reach feature parity and have a relatively painless conversion. For example, I have some decks built with flashcards-obsidian. I would happily switch to your tool if it was better but I don't want to spend too much time converting my cards to a new format.

I'm not sure what you mean, but here's the link to the plugin: https://github.com/reuseman/flashcards-obsidian/wiki You can see the examples there and see if it's something you'd want to try.

Isn't this what the Obsidian Flashcards plug-in does?

I use this plugin: https://github.com/reuseman/flashcards-obsidian

I would suggest the flashcards plugin. It integrates with Anki, which is a great tool for spaced repetition.

Try the Anki system…there was someone who learned over 10 languages with that method:

And here is the source code for Anki: https://github.com/ankitects/anki

If you want to convince people to use your spaced repetition software over Anki, you need to tell us what's so wrong with Anki that can't be fixed with plugins and that's worth $10 per year.

You must demonstrate value above what Anki does.

I look at your list of projects in https://0xdev.gumroad.com/ and they're all pre-order of things that already exist elsewhere. To me, this smacks of "give me money, and I'll give you promises." Especially the project https://0xdev.gumroad.com/l/HelpFundMe?layout=profile

You want something for free? I'll give you something for free.

Anki absolutely can be improved. For new users, it's very confusing: having multiple decks, the separation between cards and notes, and the search interface are hard for new users.

Combine something that is simpler for new users with a demonstrably better algorithm and you might have a minimally viable product. But you need the product FIRST before you request money.

Give us something that we can run for one week and know that it's better than the free software that is Anki.

This support landed late last year as part of https://github.com/ankitects/anki/releases/tag/23.10

> .apkg imports are able to merge changed notetypes, and can exclude scheduling data

My main use case is for managing my Azeron Cyborg profiles. And recently I have been experimenting with using the mobile controller feature to help do Anki spaced repetition reviews.
