…and flashcardsFlashcards to review per day, on top of the goal above — both halves count toward the streak. Set to 0 to switch this off.
What you want to learnPick the areas you're aiming for, then say where you are in each — we weigh course difficulty per topic, so years of Linux and a first look at Kubernetes both fit.

Flashcards
How the flashcard trainer asks, reads and listens - change them here or live in the trainer.
Ask me forWhat a card asks you to name. Term shows the explanation and asks for the term; Mixed picks one per card.
Read cards aloudThe narrator reads each side as it comes up.
Time to answerHow long a card waits once its question has been read, then turns itself. A card that runs out cannot be marked "I know this".
Answer aloudSay the term into the microphone when a card asks for one. Suggest turns the card and highlights the grade, and you choose. Hands-free grades for you and deals the next card.
MicrophoneWhich input listens. Chrome uses the one picked here; other browsers use the system default. With Bluetooth headphones, pick another microphone if you can: while theirs is on they drop to call quality, and the answer waits until they are back.
Card sizeHow big the card is on this device, its text with it. The trainer shows the largest size up to this one that fits the window.
