Philosophy

Made for Japanese Learning

The absolute fundamental goal of this note type is to make learning Japanese easier. Every feature you see is to simply make this learning process easier and smoother.

Minimalistic Design

This note is visually designed to be minimalistic because the fundamental goal is to learn Japanese, not to have eye catching graphics. The main focus is on the content, not the fluff.

Minimal Dependencies

The only fundamental dependencies are Yomitan (to create the note) and the Anki-Connect add-on (to export the note from Yomitan, update the note, and for certain features to work within the note). Absolutely nothing else is required. This helps with maintaining stability across various Anki versions.

Modularized, Customizable & Extendable

This project ships with built-in tools to easily disable/enable features, or even completely remove them from the base template via compile options. Additionally, there are many built-in ways to extend the note to suit your exact needs.

Documentation First

What's the point of having a powerful tool if you don't know how to use it? Lots of time has been spent in order to make sure that this note type is well documented and updated so you can use it to the best of your ability.

Free & Open Source

Everything here, including the documentation itself, is completely free and open source, licensed under MIT. Rest easy knowing you will keep full ownership of your note, forever.
