I made a free app that teaches you your openings move by move, then quizzes you until you stop forgetting them

When I started studying openings I had the same problem everyone here has: I'd watch a video or read a chapter, "learn" the line, and forget it completely two weeks later.

So I built a free desktop app (open source, no account, no ads) that fixes exactly that:

- Import any PGN or Lichess study — your repertoire, a YouTube course's PGN, whatever.

- The app first **teaches** each line: it plays through the moves with you, showing the comments and arrows.

- Then it **quizzes** you: the board plays the opponent's moves and you have to remember yours, from move 1 to the end of the line.

- When you get a move wrong, that exact position becomes a **puzzle** you keep drilling until it sticks.

- It uses **spaced repetition** (the memory technique behind Anki, the flashcard app) to bring each line back right before you'd forget it. Strong lines come back in weeks; shaky ones come back tomorrow.

Windows will show a SmartScreen warning (I don't have a paid code-signing certificate) — "More info → Run anyway".

Happy to answer anything, and if you try it and something breaks, tell me and I'll fix it. There's a Ko-fi in the repo if you want to support it, but feedback helps way more.
