FlashLearn is a simple, browser-based flashcard study app designed for exam preparation. It works like a digital version of paper flashcards: you create a deck, add question-and-answer cards, then flip through them and rate each one as Easy, Medium, or Hard. Cards you rate as Hard automatically float to the top of future sessions, so you spend more time on what you actually struggle with. The app requires no installation, no account, and no server. You just open a single HTML file in any modern browser and start studying. All your decks and progress are saved in your browser's local storage, meaning the data never leaves your computer. You can also import ready-made decks from a JSON file, which is useful for sharing study sets with classmates, and a sample deck on software metrics is included to try it out immediately. You would use this for straightforward exam cramming when you want something lightweight and private that starts instantly. It includes search and filtering, per-deck progress stats, and a clean, keyboard-friendly interface. The tech stack is React 18 and Tailwind CSS, both loaded from a content delivery network so there is no build step required, since everything lives in one HTML file. Spaced repetition, which schedules cards at optimal review intervals, is on the roadmap but not yet included, the current algorithm is a simpler priority queue that always resurfaces the hardest cards first. The project is released under the MIT license.
