• Anki – Powerful, intelligent flash cards

  Check out Mochi if you’re looking for an alternative. It probably ticks most of your boxes already. https://mochi.cards/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Anki – Powerful, intelligent flash cards

  No one has mentioned it yet, so I'll drop this alternative: https://mochi.cards/ Much prettier than Anki, has a simpler algorithm that doesn't require rating difficulty, and has lots of the same features. I'm a subscriber just because of the cloud sync - wish I could self-host but I'm happy to support the developer. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• WhisperSpeech – An Open Source text-to-speech system built by inverting Whisper

  Not OP, but I develop Mochi [0] which is a spaced repetition flash card app that has text-to-speech and a bunch of other stuff built in (transcription, dictionaries, etc.) that you might be interested in. [0] https://mochi.cards. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• How to Learn Fast

  You can try Mochi (not my site) if you don't like Anki. Source: 9 months ago

• Some notes on local-first development

  I built Mochi [0] from the ground up to be local first. The architecture is built around pouchdb for the local database which syncs to and from a remote couchdb database. It's been a challenge to implement and in hindsight I wonder if it was even worth it. Unfortunately neither of these technologies are very widely used any more (if they ever were). I am glad there is a lot of development and research in this area... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Launch HN: Onedoc (YC W24) – A better way to create PDFs

  Is there a reason you didn't consider something like Weasyprint? https://weasyprint.org I've gone through a number of systems to convert CV's, business cards, and other docs and it hasn't let me down yet. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• CSS for Printing to Paper

  You don't _have_ to use a browser. I had very good results with Weasyprint [0]. And there's also PrinceXML [1] if you're willing to pay. [0]: https://weasyprint.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Show HN: A new open-source library to design PDF using React

  Thanks for your answer! I imagined you would be using PrinceXML behind the scenes since that is probably the gold standard in HTML+CSS rendering. The only open source alternative I know of is WeasyPrint at https://weasyprint.org/. I'm not sure how well it fares against PrinceXML, though. And thanks for the pointer to Taffy - I didn't know it before! - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Ask HN: What's the best way to write a book in Markdown?

  I use Weasyprint [1] to generate a PDF from HTML, and I use a static site generator to convert Markdown to HTML. Weasyprint can handle code highlighting e.g. Using Pygments or another static framework, the only downside is it can't execute JS so if you e.g. Want to dynamically generate content to render you need to first pass your HTML through a headless browser, which is also possible though. There's also... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
