flashcards-obsidian VS yomichan-with-example-sentences

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.

To generate: if you're trying to learn Japanese, you can use the Yomichan [1] (or Yomitan now that Yomichan [2] has been sunset) extension for Chrome or Firefox which integrates with Anki so you can create a card for a word you don't know with two key presses.

For Japanese, the browser extensions Yomichan[0] (Chrome-clones and Firefox) and 10ten[1] (Safari macOS/iOS, Chrome-clones, Firefox) function similarly. There’s a few other community-built tools that are made to work with these extensions like mokuro[2] and subadub[3].

Use Yomichan with the Kanjium pitch accents dictionary installed (on that page).

I think anything you can use yomichan with could be very helpful since you don't need to worry about searching manually for kanji or use OCR. (don't know if there's any way to really use it with games other than visual novels though). Having the ability to just instantly get a definition pulled up for anything is so useful and saves a lot of time (not to mention using it for adding cards to anki in an instant).

For Japanese the most popular add on is called Yomichan, which has Firefox and Chrome versions: https://foosoft.net/projects/yomichan/

I also recommend you install Yomichan so you can look up definitions of words while you read in the browser. Spend 15 minutes (at first) per day just getting used to the wording of sentences, then when you feel like it's hard but not impossible then ramp that up to 1+ hours per day. You won't make decent progress if you don't read, and there's never a bad time to start.

But anyways it's a the best dictionary I've ever seen, I'd recommend to consider using it in case if you need some example sentences or you're completely stuck at understanding a word. For Japanese-English dictionaries I know only these ones: https://foosoft.net/projects/yomichan/

the only thing I was able to find is this https://github.com/egegungordu/yomichan-with-example-sentences, but it is not exactly what you are looking for
