Why build your own CompTIA Core 1 deck

Ready-made decks can cover the basics, but your Core 1 course has its own slides, objectives and vocabulary. DeckOwl builds CompTIA A+ Core 1 flashcards directly from the material you upload, so the terms you practice match what your instructor actually teaches.

  • Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text notes or a photo of a page.
  • Cards can cover the Core 1 domains: mobile devices, networking, hardware, virtualization and cloud, and troubleshooting.
  • Spaced repetition brings back the cards you miss more often.
  • The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study. Exports to Anki, CSV, PDF and DOCX are part of Plus.
Example CompTIA A+ Core 1 flashcards
What port does SSH use by default?TCP port 22. SSH encrypts remote login and command sessions, so it replaces older clear-text options like Telnet.
What port does HTTPS use by default?TCP port 443. HTTPS is HTTP wrapped in TLS encryption, so web traffic is protected in transit.
What does DHCP do on a network?It automatically assigns clients an IP address, subnet mask, default gateway and DNS server settings. Without it, each device must be configured by hand.
How does RAID 1 differ from RAID 0?RAID 1 mirrors data across two drives for redundancy. RAID 0 stripes data for speed but has no redundancy, so one drive failure loses everything.
What is ESD in hardware handling?Electrostatic discharge, a sudden static charge that can damage components. Use an anti-static wrist strap or mat when working inside a PC.
Generate the full set

Built from your material

Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes or a photo of a page. Cards reflect what your course actually covers.

Spaced repetition

Each card is scheduled based on how well you recall it, so ports, protocols and hardware terms get the review they need.

Quizzes and mind maps

Turn the same upload into practice quizzes with explanations and mind maps of the exam domains.

How it works

Upload your Core 1 material

Add slides, a textbook chapter, a DOCX outline or a photo of handwritten notes.

Review the generated flashcards

Check the cards, edit anything that does not match your instructor's terms, and remove duplicates.

Study on a spaced schedule

Run short daily sessions in the browser. Missed cards return sooner until they stick.

Spaced repetition then schedules each card so the ones you miss come back sooner. That helps with hardware, networking and troubleshooting content, which tends to blur together before the exam. The same upload can also produce quizzes with explanations and mind maps of the exam domains.

Frequently asked questions

What topics does CompTIA A+ Core 1 cover?

Core 1 (220-1101) covers mobile devices, networking, hardware, virtualization and cloud computing, and hardware and network troubleshooting. Build your flashcards from the official exam objectives so each domain gets its own cards.

How should I study Core 1 terms like ports and RAID levels?

Make short cards with one term or fact each, and review them in spaced sessions rather than one long sitting. Pair each port number with its protocol so you learn what it does, not just the number.

Can I export my CompTIA flashcards to Anki?

Yes, but export is a paid feature. Plus costs $99.90/year or $9.99/month and includes Anki, CSV, PDF and DOCX export. The free plan lets you study in the browser with 3 generations per month.

Do I need a credit card to start?

No. You can start on the free plan without a credit card, and students get 40% off with a school email.
