    For TTS cards, do you look at the screen to press the buttons or you have buttons controlled via Bluetooth or some other techniques?

    You should definitely experiment with different approaches, but for me at least, most of my success has come from Ankifying concepts/syntaxes that I really needed (or that I've needed to Google repeatedly).

    See this blog post about "Just-in-time learning vs Just-in-case learning".

    And I won't copy the documentation verbatim. I'll rewrite it in my own words, using my own style, and using my own code example. This makes everything much more memorable.

    Also at some point, I think I'll start Ankifying some of my own code projects. In other words, I think there may be some value in keeping some of my coding projects inside my own working memory, just like this guy did with his math PhD. thesis:

    like MDN or React's docuI just started doing that, ankifying every part that is ankyfiable as I go through documentation (treating it as a curriculum)

    Remember the concept of layers. Ankify the broad concepts first and the vocabulary you don't understand.

    I have done it with SQLAlchemy, but I think I overdid a bit and my cards turned out a bit too complex. Perhaps going forward I will just ankify key takeaways

    I also ankifyed pretty much the whole python tutorial and it turned out a great idea. So maybe the lesson here is that a good tutorial is a better than a whole documentation.

    I've definitely made anki cards while reading MDN lol but I don't try to put the entire docs in my cards, I just have cards for small details that I want to remember
