    Hey HN!

    Part of my learning process is to use repetition techniques: just run through a deck of question & answer pairs. I wanted to have something that would run on a command-line, use a simple text format for deck files, and allow me to either type answers or think of them (just like flashcards). I deliberately didn’t want any multi-session state / management, spaced-repetition algorithms etc.

    Ideally I’d write it in C but I wanted to try `ink`. It’s also my first npm package so I hope I didn’t miss anything. If you happen to try it out and run into any issues please let me know.

    Thanks and enjoy!
