It's likely that we add the ability to import from Anki, I'll also add the ability to import from other services that act as flashcard repositories. I've seen a few of them in my research.

However, the project is more focused on giving individuals the platform to create their own sets/import from elsewhere, rather than hosting a large repository.

I've added a gif to the readme that showcases one of the current flashcard modes.

We’re planning to add study analytics in the future to track progress. It’s possible that we’ll have it so that this data can be shared with another user.

We have plans in the works to allow imports from Anki. Right now, it only allows imports from Quizlet, but the ones you mention will be added in the future, assuming these other services provide a way for me to get the data other than web scraping.

Hah, thanks for bringing that up. I’ve been wanting to document the API, but have left it on the back burner so-to-speak since I figured nobody would reach it.

If you’re serious about giving the mobile client a shot, feel free to shoot me an email [email protected] and I might shift some priority over to the API.

Sorry about that. Email provider didn’t like the rapid increase in signup emails. Tested it, and it seems to be working now. Give it another shot.

It’s being HN’d right now. Twilio (email provider) seems to have flagged my account earlier, but emails appear to be working fine again. Give the signup another shot.

Correct, it’s a web app. It’s run on a server that you will need connection back to - it’s not an Android or iOS app. Again, this is still very early in development. It’s likely that we will look into offline functionality in the future.

In the future, we may potentially look into adding companion apps that can sync back to the server, but that is a far ways off from now.

I’ve been looking into adding the ability to import sets from Anki, especially with how widespread it is. We already have it for Quizlet, but Anki will certainly be next to be able to be imported from.

If your reliance is on spaced repetition - in the current state - do not switch. An SRS has not been implemented yet, but it is high on the priority list.

Once it has been added, I’d encourage you to look around and see if Scholarsome can fit your use case. To be upfront - this is still very in-dev. Anki is much more feature complete, and will be for some time, but I’m a believer in shipping fast and early to get feedback from users.

I don’t have any plans to monetize my hosted option. At most, I may add a donate button in the future. Releases are all containerized, so it should be easy to host yourself on a system under your control if you trust that more than using a third party.

This is what the project is intended primarily to address. Tools like Anki are very powerful and accomplish what they set out to do, but they fell prey to feature overload in certain aspects.

All it takes is one quick look at their docs to turn people away to a more mainstream option. Condensing its features into a more bite-sized application can make a world of difference for usability.

Simple HTML5 games are on the docket for future releases. Nothing advanced - but still something stimulating other than pure flashcards.

This is a point where I’m not as well-versed. Would love to hear any recommendations for study games that you might find useful.

As a side note, this is more targeted at an older audience, i.e. ~16+.
