Turn your notes into web-based Anki flashcards
Upload lecture slides, notes or PDFs and get flashcards with spaced repetition that you can review right in your browser.
How web-based Anki flashcards work with your own notes
Many students want web-based Anki flashcards because a browser tab is open during every study session, but the deck should still come from their own lecture slides and readings. DeckOwl reads PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, text notes and photos of pages, then writes cards and schedules them with spaced repetition.
- Question and answer cards written from your own slides and notes
- Spaced repetition scheduling that brings back cards you are about to forget
- Photos of textbook pages read with text recognition
- Anki, CSV, PDF and DOCX export included with Plus

Review in the browser

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for learning web development basics?
Start with one card per concept, such as one for each HTTP status family or CSS property, and keep each card to a single fact. Smaller decks of 20 to 40 focused cards per chapter are easier to review daily than one long list.
What makes a good flashcard for HTML and CSS topics?
Put one concept on the front, such as a property name or a term, and a short answer with a concrete example on the back. Code cards work well when the front shows a snippet and asks what it outputs.
Can I study web flashcards in the browser for free?
Yes. The free plan includes three generations per month and lets you study the flashcards in the browser. Exporting to PDF, DOCX, Anki or CSV requires Plus.
Does DeckOwl export to Anki?
Anki export is included with Plus, which costs $39 a year or $7.99 a month. Students with a school email get 40% off, and no credit card is needed to start.
