Hi folks,

When our classes went remote, I struggled to stay motivated; the tools we used didn't not play nice with one another. It was lonely.

So I built Barbra to give students all the tools needed to study together in one place. I wanted to get the best parts of Anki, Notion, and Duolingo and just make them work for all learners.

The tool is free. And you can find it at https://barbra.io At Barbra, students have their notes and flashcards together. They can also set a daily studying goal, and hold each other accountable to it by competing for streaks.

The tool is pretty bare-bone and doesn't work so well on mobile, but I would love to hear your feedback. What do you think?

Is Barbra a reference to syllogistic logic? I mean BARBARA. Looks like a powerful social learning tool, need to try it out -- will share my thoughts here once I'm done

No, it is the name of a great primary school teacher I had. But I might mention syllogistic logic from now on ;)

Looking forward to your feedback

I'm currently working on a small flashcards tool myself so this immediately peaked my interest! Great execution - love the design and the group aspect of it.
