Hey Hackers,

The main concepts of this app are

1. Take notes in a tree structure.

2. Test immediately without wasting time and effort to create flashcards separately.

3. Review with the optimal learning cycle calculated by the SR algorithm.

This is probably the question you are most curious about. “What is the difference with other competitors?”

I've yet to try it, but this looks incredibly impressive compared to the other spaced repetition apps on the market, especially UI and features-wise. I also find it a great idea to merge notes and spaced repetition, a la RemNote.

Out of curiosity, what spaced repetition algorithm is the app using? Did you create your own or did you use a pre-existing one?

I downloaded it and installed it, but could not try as it requires a signup with email!

1. The feature set on paper is impressive, but there should be a way of trying out the limited features in offline mode, without requiring a mandatory sign-up. So consider adding a demo mode both in the downloaded and web version.

2. Is there a way to host data locally?

3. The Privacy policy & Terms of service take forever to load. The loading times need some serious tweaking.

To those interested in a more modern-looking Anki (minus the Notion as in the OP): I do suggest having a look at Mochi (https://mochi.cards/). As someone new to spaced repetition (https://ncase.me/remember/) it's been absolutely amazing and I can't praise their support highly enough for being so responsive! It's one of the better subscriptions I've opted for.

They're using SM2 just like everyone else:

> And if you've always been interested in SR programs, you'd probably want to ask what algorithm Note Garden uses, which is embarrassing to say, but it's an improved version of the old SM2 algorithm.
