Why Learning System?

You’ve written a lot of notes in Obsidian, but later realized that:

• Most of the content is forgotten quickly
• Notes are rarely reviewed again

Learning System aims to upgrade note-taking into a
sustainable, active learning system that actually helps you remember and grow.

Installation

Community Plugins (once approved): Settings → Community Plugins → Browse → search Learning System → Install and enable.

Manual install (available now): download manifest.json, main.js, and styles.css from GitHub Releases and place them in .obsidian/plugins/learning-system/, then enable in Settings → Community Plugins.

Community-directory listing is pending review. Until then, use the manual install above (or BRAT).

---

Experimental: Mindmap

An opt-in Mindmap feature is included but disabled by default. Enable it in Settings → Learning System → Experimental → Mindmap. It lets you open a note or selection as an editable mindmap and review cloze cards in mindmap form.

Note: creating clozes from a mindmap writes block ids (^id) into your notes. The feature is still evolving — keep it off if you prefer a stable workflow.
