OpenCards

Overview

Basically OpenCards gives you any freedom you enjoy when creating PowerPoint-slides. OpenCards just adds all functionality which turn any existing Powerpoint presentation into flashcards.

From our experience most other flashcard learning tools are overly complex. In contrast we’ve tried to keep OpenCards as simple as possible, to allow you to focus on your learning items that really matter for you.

Features

• Easy to use: Just create flashcards as you’re used to create PowerPoint slides
• Allows for efficient memorization of vocabulary, pictures (faces, geography, mushrooms), sounds (birdsongs, intervals, chords), and all other kinds of factual knowledge (exams, phone numbers, etc. etc.)
• Intelligent learning algorithms that know when you should review which flashcards.
• Absolutely free and open source! No spyware or ads.
• Runs on all major operating systems (Windows, MacOS, Linux)
• Create flashcards like you’re used to create slides for presentations
• Allows to use any Powerpoint-file as flashcard-set without any conversion
• Superior flashcard-file management
• Use tables, charts, formulas, Unicode, nice background images and much more for your flashcards
• Customize the learning procedure based on your individual learning habits.
• Graphical visualization of learning success
• Localized to many languages including German, French, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, Greek, Portuguese, Bulgarian and many more.
• Import new flashcards from CSV-files

For the more geeky minds, OpenCards also supports MarkDown flashcards sets.

Given all these features we consider OpenCards to be the most advanced, most feature-complete but anyway most intuitive flashcard-learning software available.
