…and the gist of the post but for different reasons. Example of a large change using that strategy: https://github.com/trane-project/trane/commit/d5d95cfd331c30...

For the past three years, I have been working on Trane ( https://github.com/trane-project/trane/ ), a deliberate practice engine that helps users master complex skills. I showed it in a previous Show HN post. I wanted to build something on…

I am the creator of Trane ( https://github.com/trane-project/trane/ ) which can replace Anki and similar systems for domains that have a well-defined hierarchy between subskills (turns out that's most of them, including learning…

My implementation of mastery learning (along with other related ideas): https://github.com/trane-project/trane/ It bothered me enough that there was not something like this already available, when the idea seemed so simple, that I ended up…

…things. The alternatives are a lot more convoluted. See example from code I wrote this week: https://github.com/trane-project/trane/blob/master/src/data/... Without the let, I'd have to do a match statement followed by an unwrap just to…

That's pretty much what I've been trying to do with https://github.com/trane-project/trane/ I wanted something like you describe, but as far as I know nothing existed. So I've been hacking at this and the basic idea does work. It's now…

I've been working on https://github.com/trane-project/trane for the past year or so, mostly to get around these limitations. I tried to find a way to use Anki or another existing software to aid my music practice, but I couldn't get it to…

…on a project named after the same person (John Coltrane) as a way to help me practice music: https://github.com/trane-project/trane/ I have been meaning to generate flashcards to teach you the notes of scales and chords so that I can have…

I am already working on fixing this: https://github.com/trane-project/trane/ No AI needed. Just an old fashioned depth first search through a graph of skills and dependencies. I made it to help me practice music, but I have been branching…

…of using GPT or similar LLMs to extract flashcards to use with my spaced repetition project ( https://github.com/trane-project/trane/ ). As in you give it a book and it creates the flashcards for you and the dependencies between the…

Check out my project: https://GitHub.com/trane-project/trane It does exactly this because I also thought this was a critical limitation of current systems. I have a feature coming out soon (already merged to master but I need to make a…

Shameless plug to my own project: https://GitHub.com/trane-project/trane Dependency relationships between exercises are core to its design. I tried to use Anki but this limitation is pretty baked into Anki and made it unusable for cases…

For the actual building of all the manifests and asset files, take a look at https://github.com/trane-project/trane-music for some examples of how I am generating them. This might seem kind of annoying at first and I wasn't sure if it was…
