  • anki.el

    Emacs Anki Client

  • I have tried org-drill but decided against it and other Emacs options including chenyanming/anki.el, eyeinsky/org-anki, l3kn/org-fc and abo-abo/pamparam in the end. They all work as advertised and all use or a slight variation of the same SM2 algorithm used by Anki. They all use this one as it is publicly available.

  • org-anki

    Sync org notes to Anki via AnkiConnect

  • I have tried org-drill but decided against it and other Emacs options including chenyanming/anki.el, eyeinsky/org-anki, l3kn/org-fc and abo-abo/pamparam in the end.

  • anki-editor

    Emacs minor mode for making Anki cards with Org

  • 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.

  • anki-connect

    Discontinued Anki plugin to expose a remote API for creating flash cards.
