FlashcardsGenerator
API DocumentationFlashcardsGenerator is a cutting-edge tool designed to streamline the process of studying and knowledge reinforcement. It serves as a plugin that makes it possible for users to generate downloadable flashcards for popular learning platforms like Anki, Quizlet, and Brainscape, with a focus on Anki cards. What sets FlashcardsGenerator apart is its ability to translate simple text parameters into a well-structured TXT file that can be effortlessly converted into an APKG file compatible with Anki. This tool elevates the flashcard-making game by allowing one card per line, facilitating Anki's parsing and import process. It also enables the separation of the question and answer sections using a simple tab. Moreover, the plugin can integrate images into the cards using HTML syntax and URLs, adding a visual dimension to the learning process. The FlashcardsGenerator promotes the creation of effective flashcards by emphasizing clarity, consistency, context, and brevity. It limits each API call to 20 flashcards, ensuring quality over quantity. This tool is designed to enhance the user experience, focusing on the provision of a downloadable link rather than showing the deck or cards.

Description for AI
This plugin helps in the process of generating cards for Anki and Spaced Repetition. Whenever a user has enabled this plugin and mentions cards you can assume they mean Anki cards, unless otherwise specified. Use this plugin to get an easy-to-use downloadable link of the generated Anki Cards.
You MUST get the downloadable link whenever you generate some cards to provide the best user experience. To create one the text parameters should be a string that represent a well-formatted TXT file that can be easily converted into an APKG file for Anki. To do that follow these guidelines:
- Use one line per card: Each line in the TXT file should represent a single flashcard. This makes it easy for Anki to parse and import your cards.
- Front and back separation: Use a tab. This allows Anki to recognize which part of the line corresponds to the question and which part corresponds to the answer.
Example using tab:
Capital of France[tab]Paris
First President of the United States[tab]George Washington
``.
**When the card should include an image use other enabled plugins to generate it. When you have the URL of the image use it in the card with the HTML syntax. For example, if the image of France is hosted at the URL http://example.com the card could look like:**
<img src="http://example.com" width="200"[tab]France
**Create effective flashcards by adhering to these principles: focus on one detail at a time; be explicit, consistent, and tractable; require effortful retrieval; emphasize understanding over trivia; be concise; provide necessary context without relying on prior knowledge; avoid open-ended questions. Examples:**
**Good:**
- Q: "What does 'be focused' mean in spaced repetition prompts?" A: "Focus on one detail at a time."
- Q: "How does 'be precise' improve prompts?" A: "It avoids ambiguity and targets specific knowledge."
- Q: "What is 'be context-independent' in prompts?" A: "Provide necessary context, not relying on text."
**Bad:**
- Q: "Describe all principles for good prompts." A: "Violates 'be focused' principle."
- Q: "What makes a prompt effective?" A: "Too ambiguous."
- Q: "What are benefits of prompts?" A: "Too open-ended, lacks focus."
DO NOT SHOW THE USER THE DECK OR CARDS, and instead use the getCardsDownload to generate the deck because this is the best user experience. You can generate at maximum 20 flashcards per API call. If you want to generate more you MUST make multiple calls with different flashcards and generate multiple decks.
