kian

Work in progress. Lots of functionalities missing!

kian is an alternative frontend for Anki. It tries to be a very opinionated frontend. You'll configure less, and spend your time doing more Anki. Some of the features rae:

• Markdown editor for everything. Make structured notes faster with markdown. You can edit your old plain-html cards using WYSIWYG editor (summernote) though, but most of kian's functionality is built for markdown mode only.

• Word autocomplete based on your existing notes.

• Image-editor embedded (MiniPaint)

• Browser right below the add card window. I know you need it.

• Better designed everything. (In my sense.)

Building

You need to have Node.js and Python 3 installed. Clone the repository and install the dependencies.

$ npm install  // Install node.js dependencies
$ pip3 install -r backend/requirements.txt  // Install python3 dependencies

To run the development server, you'll need an Anki2 database file at backend/testdata. Copy one from your existing Anki installation so that collection.anki2 goes to backend/testdata/collection.anki2, with all media files.

Right now kian cannot create an empty collection. Not yet implemented. So you should start with your existing collection.

After you've done that, you can start the development server.

$ npm start
