Paper2Anki is your way to write your flashcards. Goodnotes 5 released a gamechanger in my opinion. You just write your flashcards,and you can study with them. However, I don't like the idea of only learning in Goodnotes and their algorithm needs some work imo. So I decided to create a way to make flashcards in Goodnotes (Or any other notes app) and export them to Anki!
It's just as simple as writing!
You just write on each page your Question on the top half of the page
and the answer on the bottom part.
Then you just need to export your document as a pdf.
So each of your page should look like this:
- Make sure you have python3 installed.
- Run
pip install -r requirements.txt
to install the packages required to run the script.
This script is run within the terminal.
For Windows type cmd in the search bar and then just follow the steps.
You should know what the terminal is.
Open spotlight and search there for Terminal and then just follow the steps.
- Run
python paper2anki.py YOURFILE.PDF NAME
So you give the program 2 Arguments:- The PDF file which contains the flash cards
- The name you wish the deck to have.
- Import the .apkg file into Anki
- Study
