This is neat!

I did a similar thing to manage my Japanese vocabulary. I encoded it in TOML and compiled it to Anki decks. [1]

There is a lot of room for utilities like this. Managing decks in the Anki interface and persisting them as zipped sqlite is a headache.

I did something similar, but to handle orgmode files:

maybe i'm just a jerk, but it bothers me when someone posts a project and doesn't link to an example of give a full description. i have no idea what anki cards are so i googled it and it's a pretty cool little open source flash card program. most people aren't going to do the research so it's best to have an explanation what all the components are. you don't have to be overly verbose, just a one liner explanation is fine most of the time.

If this interests you I built an entire SRS app around this idea: https://mochi.cards/

How long has this been around? Surprised I haven't seen it before! Fantastic work. I would love if I could use this with Roam Research somehow

Thanks! I launched it on hacker news about 8 months ago.
