How to use the Flashcard Maker

1Name your deck and add cards with a front (question or term) and a back (answer or definition) — or paste many at once, one card per line as “term<Tab>definition” or CSV.
2Open Study: read the front, flip the card with a click or Space, then choose Again or Got it. Known cards move up a box and come back less often.
3Open Quiz for a multiple-choice or typed test of the whole deck, with a score and a review of your mistakes at the end.
4Export a deck as CSV for spreadsheets or other apps, or all decks as a JSON backup.

What is the Flashcard Maker?

Flashcards work because of active recall: trying to remember the answer before you see it strengthens memory far more than re-reading notes. Spaced repetition adds timing — cards you know are shown less and less often, and cards you miss come straight back. This tool uses the Leitner system with five boxes: new and missed cards sit in box 1 and appear every session, box 2 every second session, box 3 every fourth, and so on up to box 5.

A short daily session beats a long one once a week. Keep each card to one fact, write the question the way an exam would ask it, and study both directions (term → definition and back) for vocabulary. Decks are stored in your browser only; you can import Quizlet’s tab-separated export or any CSV file with two columns.

Frequently asked questions

How does the spaced repetition work?

Each card is in one of five Leitner boxes. “Got it” moves it up a box; “Again” sends it back to box 1. Box 1 is reviewed every session, box 2 every second session, box 3 every fourth, box 4 every eighth and box 5 every sixteenth.

Can I import my Quizlet sets?

Yes. In Quizlet, choose Export, keep “Tab” between term and definition and “New line” between cards, copy the text and paste it into Import. CSV files with two columns (front, back) work too.

How is a typed answer checked?

Case, accents, extra spaces and trailing punctuation are ignored, so “Cafe.” matches “café”. Anything else must match exactly — use multiple choice if your answers are long.
