✨ ANKI(1) ✨ — General Commands Manual 🎀

Okay bestie, the manual name is General Commands Manual and the page is all about ANKI(1) 💅 Let's get into it!

NAME

anki — flexible, intelligent flashcard program 🧚

DESCRIPTION

Okay so Anki is a program built to help you remember facts 🧠 (like words and phrases in a foreign language!) as easily, quickly, and efficiently as humanly possible ✨. It tracks how well you remember each fact and uses that info to schedule your review times perfectly 📅. With a tiny bit of effort you can seriously boost how much you remember, which makes studying more productive AND more fun 🦋 it's giving main character energy.

Anki is based on a theory called spaced repetition 💖. In simple terms, every time you review something, you should wait longer than last time before reviewing it again 🌸. This maximizes time spent on the hard stuff and minimizes time wasted on things you already know 🙈. The concept is simple, ngl, but most memory trainers and flashcard programs either totally ignore it 💀 or use clunky, inflexible methods that were originally designed for pen and paper 📝. Not me being dramatic, but Anki really said "we're doing better" 👑.

OPTIONS

• -b ~/.anki — Use ~/.anki as Anki's base folder instead of ~/Anki 🎀
• -p ProfileName — Load a specific profile 💜
• -l <lang> — Start the program in a specific language 🌈 (de=German, en=English, etc)
