flashcards-obsidian VS free-spaced-repetition-scheduler

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.

I'm not sure I believe we understand our own learning/memory anything like enough for this not to be total pseudoscience? Reminds me of A Beautiful Mind.

Libraries: https://github.com/open-spaced-repetition/free-spaced-repeti...

All are MIT licensed I believe, Anki is primarily AGPL

Just read the wiki ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also, sorry for nitpicking, but I just checked the code here, and I saw that you changed the formula for post-lapse stability, but you didn't update the formula in the description here.

I have another one, also about difficulty. Look at the long "Stability updating formula after successful review" formula, there is a term D-b. This seems very counter-intuitive. A large value of D corresponds to an easy card, but thanks to that formula it will produce a very small change in stability. A small value of D corresponds to a difficult card, but according to that formula it will change stability a lot.

So I checked this and it seems that there's a whole bunch of different parameters (initial difficulty, initial stability, etc), and a lot of them are constant. So the next step would be to use some kind of optimization algorithm, like gradient descent, to optimize those parameters based on user's review history, right?
