Website Review - Studying Tool

so i made this cuz im studying to become an enrolled agent.

i got an exam prep course and derived the contents, turned them into flash cards for me to study with

the thing is i feel like active recalling works best by typing the answer rather than looking at a flash card question then try to remember it from just your mind like using anki,

the main purpose of this website is to help the learner understand the concept deeply by typing in the answer, get graded on it (via ai) and the feedback loop helps improve memorization of the understanding rather than the exact wording.

i posted on enrolledagent subreddit but i guess they didn't like the fact that its vibe coded, but the main value i see here is that im giving away the study content for free vs having to pay few hundred dollars just to know what contents will show up on the exam, all the questions have been verified through the materials presented by hock mock exams, and grading the answer is whats important, to reward correct understanding, not punishing wrong wording

any suggestions to make this a better studying loop?

program i use to study for EA exam part 1

currently studying for ea part 1, a few people asked me what program i used

the material contents will directly target hock style topics, and ive also got a bunch of mock ready to turn it into this type of learning method

i modeled it after anki's ability to do spaced repetitions, active recall, and gonna get to the testing effect maybe when i need it

why?

the point is i dont wanna just memorize test answers without the fundamental understanding of the concept, passing EA is one thing but i really want to be a deeply knowledgeable tax guy, since i'll be on track to take some existing clients from a retiring preparer in the upcoming years.

ive tried anki i mean its good but it just doesnt have that saved feeling when i studied with it, recalling in the mind is very abstract to me, i have to write it down somewhere, so i modified the design a bit and figured this is the best way to do it via typing

this is more of a passive learning program, i just leave it on my second screen and answer questions whenever im free or not doing anything

will keep updating this when i progress through the contents

youre welcome to try it, the style is very personalized to me cuz im devving it
