About the Add-on
This add-on was developed to automate and streamline the creation of French flashcards in Anki.
Inspired by the excellent work of Shigeඞ, it acts as an intelligent assistant: simply type a word or sentence into the main field, and the remaining fields will be filled automatically. This greatly reduces the time required to create flashcards, allowing you to focus on learning instead of data entry.
Data Sources
The add-on relies on structured lexical databases to provide accurate and reliable information.
French
- Open lexical database from Kaikki, derived from Wiktionary.
