I wondered how far I could push Anki's design. Months later, this is where I ended up.

I've been using Anki (on mobile and desktop) every day for exam prep, and after a while I realized it wasn't the reviews themselves that felt exhausting but it was staring at the same interface for hours.

So I started redesigning my setup and eventually ended up building six completely different study environments, each with its own style and atmosphere.

Some are minimal and distraction-free. Some are cozy and notebook-inspired. Some are calm and lofi. Some recreate the feeling of studying in an old university library. Some have a futuristic cyberpunk look. Others are inspired by the atmosphere of a coffee shop.

Most of them also include subtle audio feedback when revealing the answer, just to make long review sessions a bit more engaging.

All of them support the 6 core Anki note types:

• Basic

• Reversed

• Optional Reversed

• Cloze

• Image Occlusion

• Type In Answer

I packaged each one into a ready-to-import .apkg file.

Happy to answer any questions in the comments. If you're interested, you'll find more info on my profile.
