history

Project history and usage

Repeater is a command-line flashcard application whose decks are ordinary Markdown notes. It detects question-and-answer and cloze cards, records review progress in SQLite, and schedules reviews with FSRS.

Project history

Shaan Khosla developed Repeater as a lightweight, text-first alternative to applications such as Anki. Its public releases began in January 2026 and continued rapidly through the first half of that year.

Adoption history

Distributed through Homebrew, npm, platform-specific binaries, and installation scripts. The project is aimed at terminal users who prefer Markdown files over a separate graphical flashcard collection.

How it is used

Users write cards alongside ordinary notes in Markdown, index them, and begin review sessions with `repeater drill`. Optional features include Anki import, media links, Apple Notes integration on macOS, and an LLM-assisted card-writing workflow.

Why package nerds care

Repeater combines plain-text, version-control-friendly study material with SQLite progress tracking and FSRS scheduling, making spaced repetition fit naturally into terminal and Markdown workflows.

Timeline

  • 2026-01-19: Version 0.1.1 was released.
  • 2026-05-07: Version 0.1.10 was released.

Related projects

  • Anki is the principal comparison made by the project; Repeater can import Anki .apkg decks while retaining Markdown as its source of truth.
  • FSRS supplies the scheduling model used for reviews.
