HardV – terminal-based flashcard tool

HardV is billed as a powerful cross-platform flashcard program.

This is free and open source software.

Key Features

  • Almost everything can be customized, with any programming language you prefer. E.g.:
    • HardV runs in the CLI mode by default; but you may configure it to a TUI program, or to view images in a GUI window.
    • HardV can open the editor; send the content you wrote to an online judging system, and determine the next quiz time by the judging result.
    • It can be used to implement keyboard shortcut practice, cloze deletion, text-to-speech review, typing in the answer, and more.
  • The format of input files are easy to be parsed by both human and other Unix utilities like grep, sed, and awk.
  • Metadata like scheduled time is written back to input files; thus all your data is in files created and managed by yourself.
  • HardV respects contents of input files as long as possible; you could use empty lines to layout your card files.
  • HardV is a Unix filter in the default mode; that makes it easy to be called by other programs. Eg. You could pipe HardV to a voice synthesizer to make an audio quiz.
