Notice this isn’t entirely ideal either because the text stutters on “Caffeine”. Take for example this hypothetical note: - This is your mind on plants - Michael Pollan #srs/cloze-t One thing I noticed about this is that I sometimes have to re-think how I write notes in order to accommodate the algorithm. ![]() In terms of the algorithm, if we think of individual note pages as containing forests, what the sync engine is doing is picking 3 nodes on the root to leaf path and serializing it as a single card. The card itself looks a bit cluttered and could probably be fixed with better CSS. With the extra context, we now know that our prompt is about relations as used in the relational model. Going back to the example above, if we left out the mid-level block (tagged with #srs/cloze-g), we might get confused as to what relations are in the context of a database. The mid-level block provides context that is more specific to the prompt and typically contains information that makes the prompt more focused, precise, consistent and tractable. This is typically a subject area, book or paper. Typically, the highest level block situates the card in a broad context See : The topic or context should be stated at the beginning or near the beginning of the question, to prime your memory to retrieve the right kind of information and to facilitate reviewing cards from different subjects intermixed In practice, I found that being able to pull in 2 levels of blocks was both extremely useful and sufficiently powerful. By providing a limited facility to pull in context from surrounding blocks, we can leverage Roam’s block structure and turn this note: Because of this, notes in Roam are often quite nested, and pulling in content from a single block is often insufficient to create a good flashcard See : context-laden prompts help the leap from theory to practice Roam Research is quite different than traditional note-taking apps because the block is the atomic unit of reference. One feature I added that has been super useful is the ability to pull in context from parent blocks. The synchronization is two-way, meaning that any changes to cards in Anki are synced back to Roam as well. After four months of personal use, it has evolved into something that I trust and enjoy using.įabricius provides a way to create flashcards inline with your Roam pages, and exports them to Anki on the click of a button. ![]() In May, I re-wrote my Anki to Roam sync app to use Roam’s client-side Javascript API and released it as Fabricius. ![]()
