To help you get things up and running as quickly as possible, we won’t go into exactly what all the settings do or all the logic behind our recommendations. The bulk of this article will focus on explaining the basics of Anki. If you find yourself confused about how Anki works, don’t worry: you’ll get the hang of it after a week or two. The only downside is that it can be difficult to learn how to use. It’s multi-platform, rich with features, and free on most platforms. There are many different SRS programs, but we recommend Anki.

As explained in Stage 0: Active Study, we’ll be using a spaced repetition system (SRS) to actively study target language (TL) vocabulary.
