Our verdict on Skola

Skola is a free, open-source spaced-repetition flashcard app delivered as a progressive web app. It is aimed at individual learners who want to study in a browser, keep materials in local storage, and review offline without creating an account. Its FSRS scheduler and support for normal, double-sided, and cloze-deletion cards make it a focused option for personal study rather than a shared classroom or deck-discovery environment.

The workflow emphasizes local-first storage: learning materials live in the browser using IndexedDB, and the progressive web app can operate offline. For learners who want access across devices, Skola offers optional synchronization through Dexie Cloud. That creates a choice between keeping use local and enabling cloud sync, rather than requiring an account for basic local study. Rich HTML editing and cognitive prompts for higher-order thinking give card creation more scope than plain question-and-answer text, though the app remains centered on flashcards.

Skola's limits matter for learners who rely on media-rich cards, shared decks, or teaching features. Image occlusion and audio support are not implemented, and the category listing specifies no mobile apps, media cards, shared decks, or educator tools. The project describes itself as early in development, with community support. Choose Skola if free, private, offline browser-based study with FSRS is the priority; look elsewhere if you need mobile apps, audio or image occlusion, or a mature collaborative learning setup.
