Card groups, or cards grouped by block

Hi there… so I really like the flashcard functionality of logseq.

I do however have multiple topics in my database, and find it better personally to review a certain set of flashcards by topic, instead of everything mixed together. For example, I would like to only review flashcards that relate to work topics like SQL queries, etc, and at another point review all the cards related to learning Greek. Or even, within the Greek learing “domain” to be able to specify which sub-topic’s cards I would like to review, for example, Verb Paradigms.

So in short, I think it would be great if you could have some form of card “folder” or “group” in which you can dump related cards, so you don’t ONLY have to review ALL your cards together and in random order.

I think Roam research allows you to review cards grouped by bullet point/block, plus all it’s sub-bullets/sub-blocks, which I think would be a great feature for logseq.

You can use /card to query cards and review that queried subset.

I read the Logseq guide on how to search a group of cards using /card {{query}}, however I’m wondering how to set up the Flashcards to be in the desired group?
Currently in Journals I type a word followed by #card, which enters the word in the Flashcards section.

Next I’m researching how to add answers (I tried /cloze but unsure where in Journals to type the answer) and have Flashcards related to groups.

I watched Dario’s spaced repetition (what exactly is spaced repetition, sounds complex?) flashcard video (documented here) which looks useful for batch data. However my scenario is to add single words, with grouping and answers as they come to mind from daily interactions.

  1. Install Anki and the Anki Plugin
    1.1. Install Anki - the de facto flashcard app (free, open source, multi platform)
    1.2. Install the Anki - Logseq plugin in Logseq
  2. Organize / classify your cards
    2.1. Option 1: Keep all cards in a single page and use tags, page links and hierarchies to classify your cards accordingly e.g., [[SQL Queries]], [[Greek Learning/Verb Paradigms]]
    2.2 Option 2 (preferred method): Create separate Logseq pages by category e.g., Anki_SQLQueries, Anki_GreekLearning_VerbParadigms
  3. Sync the Anki database by importing your Logseq flashcards
    3.1 If you selected option 1: Import all of you Logseq flashcards as a single Anki deck and then
    click on option “Create Filtered Deck” using the appropriate keyword to study each topic / sub-topic
    3.2 If you selected option 2: Import all of your pages as separate Anki decks
