Release note

Mnemoloop 1.7 adds four flashcard types

Basic, Sequence, Quiz, and Cloze cards share one review pipeline, and a redesigned tabbed form creates any of them in one place.

Four card types, one pipeline

A flashcard is no longer just a front and a back. Mnemoloop 1.7 adds four types:

  • Basic — a question and an answer, the original card.
  • Cloze — a sentence with one or more deletions, each revealed on demand.
  • Quiz — multiple-choice questions, scored automatically.
  • Sequence — order a list of options, scored automatically.

Each type carries its own schema and its own review UI, and all four run through a single review pipeline, so the queue mixes types without special cases.

Cloze, with hints

A cloze deletion is written {{c1::answer::hint}} — the answer can carry a hint. Deletions are revealed one at a time, so a card with several blanks still asks one question at a time.

The capital of Australia is {{c1::Canberra::a city, not Sydney}}.

A form for every type

Creating a card starts in one redesigned modal. The form is tabbed, tracks its own submit state, and covers every card type from a single interface. A card can belong to several decks at once, and the form opens pre-linked when you create a card from a file, then jumps to the saved flashcard afterwards.

Smaller fixes

  • The Uncategorized deck filter now matches cards that have no deck.
  • Deck filtering matches by prefix instead of substring.
  • The VaultWatcher debounces create events and ignores files younger than its ctime threshold.
  • YAML recovery preserves the frontmatter it finds instead of overwriting it.
  • The review view hides the navbar, and the parser returns errors instead of throwing.
