a memorization app, for improving your retention and learning

Information

Echo is an unreleased app for people who want to learn things quickly, efficiently and to retain what they learn. In other words, Echo is perfect for:

  • 🧑‍🎓 Students
  • 🧑‍🏫 Professors
  • 🧠 Language Learners
  • 👨 People who just want to memorize something

Echo utilizes a tweaked version of the SM2 spaced-repetition algorithm. In Echo, not only are you able to efficiently memorize sets of information over time, but you can also quiz yourself and "cram" the information. It should be noted that out of these three, it is proven that spaced-repetition is the most effective.

Libraries

  • Electron: native app
  • Node.js: app backend
  • jQuery: DOM manipulation, animations, etc.
  • Cal-Heatmap: informative heatmap on main page
  • css.gg: css icons

Contribution

The whole codebase is a mess right now, that needs to be cleaned up sooner rather than later. For a list of things that needs to be done, please navigate to ./todo/.
