    Creator here. As a University student I was struggling a lot with the huge amount of information I needed to remember for my courses. I started using spaced repetition (Anki) and it worked great! I enthusiastically shared this method with my family but they got overwhelmed by the complexity of the Anki interface and all the options. I wanted to change that. So I built memordo. I focused on creating a minimalist but still productive interface for creating memory cards that supports image, latex, code and clozes. I have also built a sharing feature when users can share their decks and collaborate on building decks together.

    I have already received some feedback from the HN community and I would love to hear what you guys think again.

    Thanks for reading!

    FYI, when a site has had significant attention (like yours did last month in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23947659), folks are asked to wait a year before re-submitting. Here’s more: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html. Otherwise we’d be reading the same stuff over and over :)

    Instead of submitting your own site again, maybe submit the most interesting or useful other sites you encounter while working on it.
