A free flashcard maker with spaced repetition, quizzes and printing
This flashcard maker turns any list of questions and answers into a study deck you can flip through, quiz yourself on and print. Type cards one at a time, paste a list in front | back form, or load a CSV. Each side can carry a picture as well as text — handy for diagrams, kanji, flags and maps.
Study mode uses the Leitner system of spaced repetition: every card starts in box 1 and moves up a box each time you know it, so you see hard cards often and easy cards rarely. The quiz asks multiple-choice questions built from the other cards, or makes you type the answer.
It doubles as a vocabulary builder: pick one of three levels from 200 English words with their meaning, Hindi meaning and an example sentence, and it makes a ready deck — word to meaning, word to Hindi, Hindi to English, or a sentence with a gap — for spaced-repetition study and a vocabulary test.
Decks are saved in your browser and never uploaded. Export a deck as CSV or JSON to back it up, and print a double-sided sheet when you want real cards.
How to use the Flashcard Maker
- Press “New deck” and give it a name, for example “Biology chapter 4”, then add cards: front (question) and back (answer). “Add picture” or Ctrl+V attaches an image to either side.
- For vocabulary, open “Vocabulary builder”, choose a level, a set of 20 words and the card sides, and press “Make vocabulary deck”. “Show word list” lists the meanings, Hindi meanings and sentences.
- For many cards at once, open “Bulk import”, paste lines such as
mitochondria | powerhouse of the cell(or comma- or Tab-separated), or choose a CSV file. - Open the Study tab, pick “Due cards” or “All cards”, start, flip each card and press “Know it” or “Don’t know”. Keys: Space flips, 1 and 2 grade.
- Open the Quiz tab for multiple choice or type-the-answer questions, and the Stats tab to see how many cards sit in each box and when they come back.
- Use CSV, JSON or “Print sheet” at the bottom to export; “Import JSON” restores a deck on another device.
Flashcard Maker features
Text and picture cards
Either side can have a picture from a file or the clipboard, shrunk to 640 px and stored inside the deck.
Vocabulary words with Hindi meanings
200 words in three levels, each with meaning, Hindi meaning and an example sentence; five card styles including fill-the-gap sentences.
Bulk import that understands three formats
Paste “front | back”, “front, back” (quotes allowed) or Tab-separated lines; a “front,back” header row is skipped. CSV files with quoted multi-line cells work too.
Leitner spaced repetition
Five boxes reviewed after 0, 1, 3, 7 and 14 days; missed cards drop back to box 1 and return in about ten minutes.
Two quiz styles
Multiple choice draws three wrong answers from the rest of the deck; type-the-answer ignores case, spacing and end punctuation and accepts alternatives separated by “/” or “or”.
Printable double-sided sheets
Eight cards per A4/Letter page with backs mirrored on the following page, so printing on both sides (flip on long edge) lines up each answer behind its question.
How the Leitner boxes work
Sebastian Leitner described the method in 1972 using five physical boxes. The idea is simple: a card you keep getting right should be reviewed less often. The schedule used here is:
- Grade honestly and study a little every day: the intervals only help if you come back when cards are due.
- Quiz answers count as reviews too, so a wrong multiple-choice guess sends that card back to box 1.
| Box | When you see it again | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Same session (about 10 minutes) | New cards and anything you missed |
| 2 | After 1 day | Known once |
| 3 | After 3 days | Known twice in a row |
| 4 | After 7 days | Nearly learned |
| 5 | After 14 days | Mastered — still checked fortnightly |
Vocabulary words with meaning in Hindi and a sentence
The word list is the same one used by the word of the day page: 200 words chosen for classes 4 to 10 and written for this site. The levels are our own grouping by difficulty, not an official CEFR level — check your level with the English level test. A good routine is one set of 20 words a week:
- Start with “Word → meaning, Hindi and sentence” and study until most cards reach box 3.
- Then make the “Hindi meaning → English word” deck and use the typed quiz — it doubles as a spelling check. Practise spelling further with the spelling test.
- Finish with “Sentence with a gap”, the closest to a real vocabulary test: the word is blanked out of its example sentence.
Printing, exporting and moving decks
“Print sheet” lays out eight cards per page with dashed cutting lines. Print double-sided (flip on long edge) and each answer lands behind its question; choose “Save as PDF” in the print dialog to keep a PDF.
The CSV export (front, back, box) opens in any spreadsheet or the CSV Viewer; the JSON export is the full deck with pictures and review history — use it for backups and “Import JSON” on another device. Clearing site data deletes decks.
Flashcard Maker FAQ
Is this flashcard maker free?
Yes. The flashcard maker is free, has no account and no card limit beyond your browser’s storage space, which comfortably holds thousands of text cards.
Where are my flashcards saved?
In your browser’s local storage on this device only. Nothing is uploaded. Use the JSON export to back up a deck or copy it to another device.
How do I import flashcards from a spreadsheet?
Put questions in the first column and answers in the second, save or copy as CSV, then either paste the lines into “Bulk import” or choose the CSV file. A header row called “front,back” is ignored automatically.
What does “due now” mean?
A card is due when its box’s waiting time (table above) has passed. The Study tab counts them so you know how long today’s session is.
Can I add pictures to the cards?
Yes, on either side. Choose a file or paste a screenshot; it is reduced to 640 px and appears on the study card, in quizzes and on the printed sheet.
Can I take a vocabulary test with Hindi meanings?
Yes. Make a vocabulary deck, open the Quiz tab and choose multiple choice or typed answers. Each result also moves the word between Leitner boxes, so missed words come back sooner.
