Flashcards is a simple HTML5 app that allows you to create your own flashcards for studying. It is easy to create cards and organize them into different collections for studying multiple subjects. Flashcards works completely offline.
You can install flashcards from the Chrome Web Store
Or for your mobile device, goto http://fattarsi.com/flashcards
Circle me on Google+ to follow updates.
I love getting feedback and hearing new ideas, so if something is missing or not working correctly? Let me know.
I launched app from browser but unable to enter content??
where is documentation????
thanks
Thanks for the feedback. I put up some text, just a start for now. Hope this works for you.
I went to the app and there is no text. I won’t work
I LOVE THIS APP! It would be perfect if you could ‘batch’ cards. For example, i’d like to separate my AP Psychology and my Spanish Flashcards so that they don’t shuffle together.
Thank you! When I started the app I had that exact idea in mind, I will bump the priority on that feature. Stay tuned for updates.
Could you also add in the title of the deck that is currently being used on screen somewhere…?
I like that idea!
I created the cards, but I want to share them with my students. Are they storable?
Also, I want to create different card sets by subject.
I am a language teacher and I am professionally interested in flashcards builders for a project I am working on. The idea is to create a fully professional “flashcard builder”, using data from a tagged linguistic databank manageable beetween users.
Should you be interested, please contact me to keep on talking.

Currently, there is no way to share the cards you create. Although, I think it is a great idea and I would like to include that some day.
My next release will have a feature for managing multiple decks so that cards can be created and organized by subject. I plan to have it on the Chrome store in a couple weeks.
Your project sounds interesting, I would like to talk in more detail, I will be in touch.
nice app. Where are the cards stored? Can they be backed up or exported?
The cards are stored using localstorage in HTML5. Basically the browser is storing it for you. I don’t have a way at this time to export the cards, but I have something in the works, hopefully in a week or so.
It is difficult because I cannot find a way to have javascript prompt with a file to download (might not be possible?) and since there is no backend server part (the app works completely offline) I cannot generate a file on the server-side to be downloaded.
What I am thinking is having a “generate csv” button that will open a new window where you can copy/paste the text, which is not as clean as I would like it… Then have an import option by file.
Thanks for the feedback!
+1 on the import/exporting functions. maybe this will help?

thanks for a great app
It’s coming soon. I will broadcast it on G+ when it is pushed on the chrome store.
Thanks for the link!
Could the public folder in DropBox be used to share Flash Cards? I’m a Chemistry teacher.
(1) I could have an index file in DropBox that I put online;
(2) I could have students make up quizzes and send them to me;
(3) I could put these in the public folder of DropBox; and
(4) I could add their link to the online index.
This might fit in with your “generate csv” idea, giving the students a way to share their quizzes.
I have started on the csv approach, I will be curious to see how it fits with your use-case.
I think a csv will be useful because it can opened in a typical spreadsheet program, which can be useful for bulk edits/additions, and also the ability to backup and share (via dropbox for example).
I have a bit more testing to do but I am aiming to have it pushed out in less than 2 weeks
Hi Chris,
First of all, I like this flash card app. I’ve tried a lot of them since they have been designing them for apps. I think most could never design them as truly simple. Because that’s what flashcards should do first and best. I think this card might help me and my potential clients. Hope so! Here’s my question.
All I want to do is see that my members study each of the following sites. Starting from very basic questions. Sites are: facebook, twitter, linkedin, gmail, google, google +, google blogger and google docs.
Please explain how you would set up a card for each one. Because that’s how I will teach my social media / social networking mastermind group.
If you show me how to do that, then I will link your app to my blog as lot’s of students in the Chicago area will learn from your system!
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sy, I would love it if my app could be used for your clients!
Let me understand what you want to do. Do you want to prepare cards for your clients? A collection of cards for each site, or a single collection? Or are you just looking for instructions on how your clients can create their own?
If it is instruction I can provide some better documentation that might be helpful.
As for sharing, I am currently working on that and hope to release that functionality shortly after the holidays. My goal is to be able to import a .csv so that someone like yourself can create a collection using Google docs or any spreadsheet application, save as a .csv, and send to your clients to import into the flashcard app. I would also make an export option within the app as well.
Thanks for the feedback and let me know if I misunderstood.
Chris
how to work it? after i will set up my flashcard, i can do what next? no URL,no picture,how to save it? how to send it to other?
what i can do by it?
Ok I am not sure i quite understand. I have written a term on one side of the card and a definition on the other side. how do you flip the card over, so the students can see if they have the right word or definition?
Kris, you can click on the word or use the keyboard up/down arrows to toggle the side of the card. Let me know if that is still giving you any problems.
For some reason, I din’t think to click the word to toggle it. But I see from the comments “It doesn’t work” that I was not the only one. Perhaps you could include an instruction “click” below the “question” / “answer”.
Thanks for the feedback, this is good to know.
When I finish up with the import / export feature, I am looking into a “first time run” display to walk through using the app. That can be useful too for describing updates and new features.
Or like you mentioned, some text below the phrase.
Could you include an option to have the “answer” appear below the question?
I don’t have a website yet, but I do enjoy the use of the cards for those I tutor. I teach Martial Arts as a free service to people in need, and it sure helps with terminology such as Chinese words and their meaning. Thank you for this wonderful and functionally simple app.
Chris, is there some way to decrease the font size or change the font type? Please forgive my lack of app wizardry. Thank you.
I really hope that there is a whiteboard beside the cards.I can write down to check whether I can remember those words.But it is still a very good APP,I like it!
If possible, could you add an option/function that allows the cards to be printed?
