Flashcard is a desktop study app I built to make creating and reviewing flashcards fast and easy. It runs locally. Your cards, images , and history live in a local SQLite database, and the app ships as a single Windows installer. The app is built with Electron, React (Vite + Tailwind) frontend, and a python FastAPI backend.

Features:

• Cards are authored in Markdown with full LaTeX support, which makes it perfect for rich technical and scientific material.

• Images can be pasted or dragged in directly, including from a webpage- the app will fetch the image and store it locally

• Cards are grouped into subjects, and can secondarily be organized with tags.

• The practice engine is the heart of the app. there are 3 review modes, which can be used globally or on a specific subject:

  • Random: picks at random

  • In-Order: goes in order seen in app

  • Smart: a spaced-repetition approach that surfaces the cards you’re struggling with by weighting performance over the last 10 tries and timing since last tested.
