obsidian-spaced-repetition VS excalidraw

This is basically what I tried to do using the spaced repetition plugin for Obsidian but it's just not very good yet. I just checked and the author asked for a co-maintainer yesterday. I really hope they can find someone to put a bit of time in because it's a great idea and a great foundation.

Obsidian Spaced Repetition

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?

* The idea of putting notes into a "reverse spaced repetition" algorithm where instead of spacing things you've learnt further and further into the future, you are spacing things that are "fruitful" nearer and nearer in the future (and when you have less to add, further into the future, when eventually a note becomes "evergreen"), which can be achieved with https://github.com/st3v3nmw/obsidian-spaced-repetition. This is described better by Andy: https://notes.andymatuschak.org/zJrfPCbY7GcpV9asEc8NTVzXTAV4...

I believe you're looking for the Spaced Repetition plugin

This is an open task to add support for importing from anki, so hopefully soon

Gotcha. You might have a better time with the obsidian-spaced-repetition plugin as a tool to remind you to review notes: https://github.com/st3v3nmw/obsidian-spaced-repetition

Sow that you mentioned Obsidian. There is a plug-in which bring you the possibility to create Flashcards: https://github.com/st3v3nmw/obsidian-spaced-repetition. Very helpful when using while learning.

See for example https://github.com/st3v3nmw/obsidian-spaced-repetition

However, Notion and Obsidian can only help you write documentation. Well, how about some visuals? Let's talk about Excalidraw.

Fun fact: I used GA in Excalidraw, and it's still powering some of the interactions! https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/blob/master/package...

I was happy to find out recently that there is a way to make Mermaid diagrams WYSIWYG / drag and drop editable that the open source https://excalidraw.com has and did I mention it's open source!? With a LLM, you can go full loop back to Mermaid again after a few rounds of manual editing. "What a time to be alive!"

I'm working on a personal project and found myself looking for an alternative to Postman/Insomnia this morning. This made me realize i've been using the same tools for so long for work (mobile development, finance) that this project may be a good time to try out some new things.

Here are a few tools that i've been using lately that I really enjoy:

https://pocketbase.io/ - A dead-simple self-hosted firebase/supabase-like "backend in a box" using golang and sqlite. So far i've been really impressed. I've gone the route of extending the base offering with more go code and am really enjoying the experience.

https://excalidraw.com/ - An open source whiteboarding tool. Slick to use and after learning some keybinds I've gotten pretty fast at throwing together diagrams to explain things to people on my team. The killer piece though is that the filetype is just json, so I can source control my diagrams. Even better, their "export to png" function has a box to embed the json data _into_ the png, allowing me to slap the diagram in places that only accept images (think confluence) and still be able to change the diagram later if needed. 10/10.

https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/ - Gitlab's CI/CD toolset is really impressive, and I've gotten really intimate with it's deeper features over the past year. I'd be curious though to hear from someone who's familiar with it vs it's competitors.

Sketch easy and go back to work...
