* Editing - Keyboard shortcuts for committing a card? Undo system in the editor would be useful. Contextual help for the icons on hover.
* Decks - Perhaps separate tab for this rather than the side panel being the only way to view them
* notifications - Avoid the alert pop up for notifications when the user does an unexpected action. Maybe the area under the CARD CREATOR title might be the place for it.
* navigation - there should be quick navigation to study or desk views always present. Having to click on the side panel, then click is a little inconvenient.
* New Cards - it's possible to get to the Card Creator without any decks created. If I want create a new deck for this card, I'd have stop editing and click the side panel. Surely typing a new deck name in the Deck form on the Card Creator would be less confusing?
You'll get two types of users coming to this app. Those who are familiar with spaced repetition apps and those who aren't. I'd recommend spending time on polishing the onboarding experience for noobie users. For the more experienced user I would expect a few features if this was going to be a more modern anki-lite, like a deck view organisable in a folder format or tags, or an undo system for the editor.
Having an exportable format is extremely important for me personally. Might be different for other people.
I would not pay for this but might buy it as an app on my phone.
I would be more likely to buy a subscription of you had a ton of decks on it like memrise does.
But I totally get you, that for something like learning a language it would be nice to have some predefined decks.
So I built memordo. I focused on creating a minimalist but still productive interface for creating memory cards that supports image, latex, code and clozes. I also built a chrome extension so you can add memory cards instantly whether you are reading pdfs or wikipedia.
I learned so much coding, like rendering latex instantly in a chrome extension, or the painful complexity of wysiwyg editors. I ended up using a vue based framework called tiptap. It works as a wrapper on top of prosemirror. (https://github.com/ueberdosis/tiptap...)
Anyways, I would love to hear what you guys think about this project!
