Anki (flashcards)

1. How to install and run

Because Anki's developer are being clever with their build systems, Anki is very hard to build and make run correctly. And because they also like to make backward incompatible changes to their sync servers. I wasn't able to run Anki at all on nix or guix for years.

Finally, someone updated nix's package (somewhen begining of 2024). I managed to install nix on my guixSD, and was able to install and run anki.

  • nix-env -i anki
  • QT_XCB_GL_INTEGRATION=none anki
