:card_file_box: The Leitner box is a box of card that will allow you to remember anything forever(ish). By making a daily habit of recalling something, you increase you chance of engrave it in your long-term memory.
Every day, you start by adding a few card to your box (5 to 10). All new cards start at level 1.
Then you pick all card from level which validate !((day + lvl) % (2 ** lvl)) in decreasing order. If you got it right, the card move up one level. Otherwise, it fallback to level 1.
Once a cards reach level 8, it's supposed to be remembered and can retire.
Bonus:
It's easier to remember a card if it contextual (allow user to add random bit of information to it: text, photo, doodle ...)
It's easier to go through all cards if everything is smooth and pleasing. Nice colors and animations can help a lot.
