Simple spaced repetition plugin

Hopefully, the API will support Andy Matuschak’s Orbit software

I’m in the same boat, I migrated my writing and thinking from RemNote to Obsidian, but the spaced repetition is really nice in RemNote.
Hopefully something can be developed soon, so that we would not have to use RemNote.

I created an SR plugin for note-level spaced repetition. If you’re interested, check it out here.

RemNote’s Flashcard system(IEP :: Individualized Education Plan) so cool. If Obsidian get it, it’s sooo powerful thinkg and studying tool.

@Pseudonium 's plugin can already do everything that RemNote does (minus image occlusion). Just use the cloze paragraph style regex for everything.

A lot of people seem to overestimate RemNote’s SRS system. The idea behind it (concept/descriptor framework) is absolutely genius but the implementation is still extremely buggy and unreliable, at least for me. I prefer to keep all of my cards in one single and stable system (Anki).

I agree to some extent. I’ve been playing around with RemNote for a while now, but every now and then there’s some weird, unexpected behavior showing up - and I’m not at all 100 % sure all my Rem are kept and presented for repetition at the right time.
I’d gladly switch to Obsidian the very moment an android app is provided and there’s some stable plug in is available that indeed does the job in a reliable fashion. 90 % of my work happens on android (tablet and phone connected) - so for me it makes no sense at the moment to set up mainly windows based system. But I hope that’ll be on the way soon, I’m a heavy dynalist user for years already (practically all my life sits in dynalist) and so I have a lot of trust in the developers from knowing what really great and highly functional and stable things they’re able to build.

As for Anki, unfortunately adding cards to a multitude of stacks is a real pain and everything but efficient, some SRS bugs have occured lately as well.

I definitely agree, having all cards in one system is absolutely crucial to make it work efficiently. And to be frank, there’s no way around a Spaced Repetition System for any kind of knowledge work - cause one’s own brain is a thousand times faster than any well-thought out technical linking or networking structure, when it comes to retrieving or connecting dots of information. What you know is available within milliseconds - without clicking or searching anything and it connects much better.

Here it is another approach to solve the problem of SRS on Obsidian.

i’m so happy i could scream. After many MANY months of trying to get Anki and Obsidian to work harmoniously for me (I was on the verge of giving up and moving to linux and living in vim or emacs entirely… the desperation was real lol) this Flashcards plugin finally works for me. And works surprisingly well I might add!
Everything’s going smoothly, I can input flashcards from pretty much anywhere in Obsidian without it getting in the way, it’s really EXACTLY what I was wanting.
