This is a flashcard app that helps you learn words and phrases by creating decks and reviewing cards. You then rate each word - whether you remember it or not - and the algorithm generates an ideal repetition schedule to help you learn and recall the words effectively.
Honestly, I was creating the app just for myself while learning Armenian (which is hard). I got frustrated with Anki and other flashcard apps and needed a simple yet functional flashcard repetition tool that doesnât require app installation or a complex onboarding process before use. Just create cards and learn them on any platform you want (or create a PWA app within the browser). Now I am happy with the progress I made (both with Armenian and with the app). So what if it could be a free service that language learners may need? I believe it solves many other servicesâ pain points, and itâs free.
What it does:
-
Full SM-2 spaced repetition, no configuration needed
-
CSV import (paste your word list and go)
-
4-field cards: word, translation, example sentence, mnemonic (which is super useful if you want to boost your learning curve)
-
Weekend Learner Mode â different daily limits for weekdays vs weekends
-
Progress dashboard, practice mode, dark theme
-
Cards (decks) library - available but still needs to be filled with useful decks.
-
Works in the browser and is optimised to be "savedâ as a web app.
-
Free, no paywalls, cross-device sync
Stack: React + TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Clerk.
I would be happy if it could help you progress in your foreign vocabulary, and I would also appreciate any feedback.
