Anki supports creating cards from LaTeX notes via an add-on[0], and for importing from a plaintext-based format there is a command-line tool[1]. After that, one can use Anki’s accompanying shared decks feature to make a deck available to others[2].
Admittedly, all of those options aren’t entirely hassle-free or discoverable.

- lervag 7y agoThere is also my new toy project, apy [0]. It allows, among other things, to add and modify cards from cli. [0]: https://github.com/lervag/apy https://github.com/lervag/apy
- goblin89 7y agoapy looks awesome—thanks for sharing!
- gavribirnbaum 7y agoExactly. It takes 100 add-ons to get this to work. We just wanted to make it so that I can highlight a text and say "create a flashcard" and then it is all done. We also offer more tests options as you can do Memrise-like multiple choice test or an Anki-like card-flip test. Is that something that you find useful? :) I know some passion are avid Anki-ers so I would love to get your take on it.
- goblin89 7y agoI value integration flexibility and want to control or at least know exactly the spaced repetition algorithm I am using. Additionally, I believe a hosted service without trustworthy end-to-end encryption is a no-go for personal knowledge management. So far I’ll stick with org-drill and Anki, it works for me (not using any add-ons).
