What is the Flashcard Generator?

A flashcard generator converts study notes into question-and-answer cards for active recall. Put one fact per line: lines written as Term: definition, Term - definition, Term = definition, Term :: definition or separated by a tab become two-sided cards, and plain sentences become fill-in-the-blank (cloze) cards that hide the key name or number.

Click any card to flip it, print the deck, or export a tab-separated file for Anki (which also pastes straight into Quizlet) or a CSV file. Cards are built in your browser as you type; nothing is uploaded.

How to use the Flashcard Generator

  1. Type or paste your notes into the box, one fact per line (sample notes show the format).
  2. Separate term and definition with a colon, “::”, “=”, a spaced dash or a tab; plain sentences become cloze cards automatically.
  3. Click a card to flip between Question and Answer and test yourself.
  4. Click Export for Anki, Export CSV (Quizlet) or Print cards to study elsewhere.

Frequently asked questions

How do I import the cards into Anki?
Click Export for Anki to download a tab-separated .txt file, then in Anki choose File › Import, select the file and map the first field to Front and the second to Back.
How do I get my flashcards into Quizlet?
Quizlet imports pasted text. Open the exported Anki .txt file, copy everything and paste it into the Import box when creating a set, keeping “Tab” between term and definition and “New line” between cards.
What is a cloze card?
A cloze card blanks out part of a sentence for you to recall. A line without a separator hides its longest capitalized term or number, so “Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius at sea level.” becomes “Water boils at _____ Celsius at sea level.”
Why are flashcards good for studying?
Testing yourself (retrieval practice) strengthens memory more than rereading notes, and reviewing cards at increasing intervals (spaced repetition) helps you remember them long term. Keep each card to a single fact.
Why did some lines not become cards?
A line needs a separator, or — for a cloze card — a capitalized word or a number to hide. The term before the separator can be up to 120 characters; lines with neither are skipped.
