I've never thought of the flashcards concept. It's so simple yet so useful. I think it will be a great addition to my opening studies, to quickly revise them, like for critical positions with only moves for advantage, typical ideas etc.
Thank you for the blog!
good recap of how to start using Lichess learning features for maximal hands-on learning juice extraction.
I myeslf like the visual drawing features a lot. for at a glance plan (foward) concepts not just piece paths...(or single immediate mobility potential).
note taking as homework platforms. important for the giver of insights to allow their studies to be cloned into unlisted privvate studies where the individual can doodle own thoughts in private.. beyond shy imitation learning in passive study of others untouchable studies from above.
etc....
I made 500 flashcards out of my blunders
Very nice ideas. I'm also a big fan of Lichess studies. The only thing I don't like about them is the arbitrary low 64 chapter limit. To review any decent number of games you end up with dozens of studies all split apart. I believe we have the technological capability to handle more than 64 studies which are essentially PGNs.
It's really useful information, but the most important is to know how to make chess flashcards. Please, explain it in detail.

''To review chapters, you can use Preview mode, but what I usually prefer to do is to open the study in an incognito browser window (this is why this study is set to Unlisted and not Invite Only). That will automatically quiz you on all the chapters without showing you the solutions.''
Please explain this part?
@Alena_str @Bazigar_64squqres
you create a lichess study with the described settings
for each interesting position you create a new chapter
when you click on "add a new chapter" you select "FEN" and copy paste the FEN of the position you want to study (after you play a game you go on the analysis board -> share -> FEN -> click on the "copy" button)
put the link of the study in your browser favorites
when you want to review your flashcards you open a Firefox (for example) incognito window and you click on the link of your study
this way you are quizzed
otherwise you see the study chapters from the "editing" point of view (not sure I'm clear)
@CheckRaiseMate
For flashcards, don't you think it's more efficient to create a Chessable private course ? This way you don't need to think anymore about how/when to review them
For openings it's probably not the best tool, too difficult to update regularly your private variations with new moves

studies are great for openings, at least if you do them right. with well structured study, it's easy to learn openings in parts, and have the variations not be lost or mixed up.
but if your 'studying' is playing a game, adding one more move to a variation you just played, you'll quickly get a spaghetti of lines, without comments, arrown and explanations
But, to be fair, difficulty in editing is a fair point on this atrocious mobile app
Yes sorry I may not have been clear I was talking about chessable private courses that are not the best for openings with regular updates
