This repository contains a script to convert the LinkedIn "Skill Assessment Quizzes" from Ebazhanov which are in the Markdown format into csv files that can be imported into Anki as well as the converted files.
Anki is a popular open-source flashcard program that follows a spaced-repetition approach so that users can learn topics more effectively in less time.
This repository includes:
- the script itself needed to convert all of Ebazhanov's markdown files into a .csv file that can be imported into Anki. Any images referenced in the markdown files are copied into Anki's collection.media folder and properly referenced in the flashcard. As of this writing, Anki does not support Markdown style code formatting such as
[nums[j] for j in range(n) if bitmask[j] == '1']. Therefore, the code examples embedded in the flashcards are sometimes hard to read. - all of the Markdown file's as ready to import .csv files
| Purpose | Name |
|---|---|
| Programming language | Python 3.10 |
| Version control system | Git |
To import the .csv files in Anki, it is assumed that you already have installed Anki.
Open Anki and go to File -> Import or press Ctrl + Shift + I and select the .csv file you want to import. Make sure that you select as type Basic and that you toggle the Allow HTML in fields option. You will most likely also want to change the name of the deck from Default. Now you have imported the .csv file.
If you want to convert the markdown files for yourself, it is assumed that your operating system is Windows and that you have installed Python and Git .
Clone this repository with the following command:
git clone https://github.com/johanneshagspiel/markdown-to-anki-csv-converter.git
You will also need Ebazhanov's markdown files. First go into the resources folder:
cd resources
In case there is already a linkedin-skill-assessments-quizzes folder, delete it. Now clone Ebazhanov's repository with:
git clone https://github.com/Ebazhanov/linkedin-skill-assessments-quizzes.git
Lastly, you need to add the path to the collection.media folder of your Anki installation in the main method. Most likely, you can find this directory at:
C:\Users\@Username\AppData\Roaming\Anki2\@Username\collection.media
Now you can run the main method and convert the Markdown files yourself.
