Paragliding Theory to Anki Deck

Problem People who don't have a Windows computer want to learn for the Paragliding License exam in Germany.

Solution A script that converts DHV questions to an Anki deck. Note that the latest deck ONLY covers A-License questions.

How to learn with the latest Anki deck

• Download & install Anki: https://apps.ankiweb.net/
• Download all CSV files from the latest anki deck files
• Import them into Anki, one Deck per CSV (check HTML usage)
• Open images from the PDFs in originals on the side
• Start learning

What does the script do?

The script (convertToAnki.js) was used to convert the initial questions from basic text format into Anki-compatible CSV files. These CSV files contain a little bit of HTML, so Anki displays the cards nicely.

The script is a simple node script that looks for the inputs in the manually-cleaned folder and outputs Anki-compatible csv files in the dist folder.

How to use the script
