Anki with a chance of Rickroll

Never gonna give you up... but maybe your flashcards will !

An add-on for the spaced-repetition flashcard app Anki that will bring a fun twist to your Anki reviews by randomly displaying a Rickroll before each answer is shown.

Acknowledgments

The code architecture of Ankiroll is heavily inspired by Ankitty by marvinruder, which itself is a fork of Puppy Reinforcement by glutanimate.

Big thanks to these awesome developers for their work! Without them, Ankiroll wouldnโ€™t have had such a solid foundation to deliver unexpected Rickrolls to unsuspecting learners !

Never gonna give you up... but definitely gonna give you credit! ๐Ÿš€
