Flashcard Maker

A flashcard maker is an online tool for creating digital flashcards: a prompt on the front and the answer on the back. This flashcard maker groups cards into named decks, lets you flip through them to test yourself, and schedules reviews with spaced repetition so you remember more with less cramming.

Create a deck with the form above, then add cards: put the term, question, or foreign word on the front and the definition or translation on the back. You can also paste a whole list at once using one line per card in the format front | back. Everything is saved in your browser automatically.

Spaced repetition is a study technique where reviews are spread out over increasing intervals instead of crammed into one session. This tool uses a lite version of the SM-2 algorithm: a card you know comes back in 1 day, then 6 days, then at ever-longer intervals, while a card you are still learning comes back tomorrow. Each deck shows how many cards are due right now.

Read the front and try to recall the answer before flipping the card, then rate yourself honestly: Know it if you got it right, Still learning if you did not. Short daily sessions beat one long cram session, and studying only the due cards keeps each session focused on what you are about to forget.

Yes, it is completely free with no account and no signup. There are no locked features and no paywall: every deck, card, and study session is available the moment the page loads.

Your decks are saved in your own browser using localStorage, so they are there when you come back on the same device. Nothing you type is sent to a server. Because the data lives in one browser, use the copy feature to back up or move a deck as plain text.

Open a deck, scroll to the import box, and paste one card per line in the format front | back, for example: hola | hello. Lines without the separator are skipped, and you will be told how many cards were imported. This makes it easy to build decks from class notes or share a deck with a friend by pasting text.

Due is the number of cards scheduled for review today by the spaced repetition algorithm. New cards and cards you marked Still learning are due the next day; cards you know come back after longer intervals. Studying your due cards each day is the whole routine.

Aim to clear your due cards every day rather than hitting a fixed number. For new material, 20 to 30 new cards a day is a sustainable pace for most students. If the due pile grows, shorten your sessions but keep them daily: consistency matters more than marathon sessions.

Yes. Put vocabulary on the front and translations on the back for languages, or terms and definitions, dates and events, or formulas and worked steps for exams. The shuffle toggle mixes card order so you learn the material itself instead of the order of the deck.
