Roam Research Flashcards and Spaced Repetition

Roam Research Walkthrough by @NotesWithRen (this is an old version of the app + #flashcard should be used instead of #spaced 🙃 )

Our public Roam Research Graph with all the information about the integration

API Sync

As we are waiting patiently for the Roam Research API, you can use the integration currently via manual export and import.

In Roam Research, go to the three dots in the top right corner and Export All or Export a specific page. Then select JSON and Save. The output file is ready to use with the NeuraCache app 👌

This process is best performed from your mobile phone as you can easily import the output with the NeuraCache mobile app.

You don't need to unzip the file. Tap "Import Json File" and choose the exported file.

NeuraCache will traverse your graph in search of flashcards and blocks for Spaced Repetition.

Regular Flashcards

You can create a flashcard anywhere in your graph using a #flashcard tag.

Format:

  • Question #flashcard #tags
    • Answer
      • You can nest more text
    • You can also add images

Example:

  • Who was the first president of the USA? #flashcard #history
    • George Washington

Regular Spaced Repetition

You can create a Spaced Repetition block anywhere in your graph using a #spaced tag. The #spaced tag can be customized to any other tag in the NeuraCache settings.

Format:

  • Content #spaced #tags
    • You can nest more text and images

Example:

  • "Peace is happiness at rest; happiness is peace in motion." #spaced #naval

Batch Flashcards

Importing a group of Flashcards.

Format:

  • #flashcard #tag1 #tag2
    • Question 1
      • Answer 1
    • Question 2
      • Answer 2

Example:

  • #flashcard #Chemistry
    • Bohr Radius Equation?
      • $$a_0 = \frac{{\hbar ^2 }}{{m_e ke^2 }}$$
    • Radii of stable orbits in the Bohr model Equation?
      • $$r = n^2 \frac{{\hbar ^2 }}{{m_e kZe^2 }} = n^2 \frac{{a_0 }}{Z}$$

Batch Spaced Repetition

Importing a group of Spaced Repetition Cards.

Format:

  • #spaced #tag1 #tag2
    • Content 1
    • Content 2
      • More Content 2

Example:

  • #spaced #books #highlights #[[Naval Almanack]]
    • The best jobs are neither decreed nor degreed. They are creative expressions of continuous learners in free markets.
    • Following your genuine intellectual curiosity is a better foundation for a career than following whatever is making money right now.
    • If it entertains you now but will bore you someday, it’s a distraction. Keep looking.
