Cobocards

Ali emailed me with details of Cobocards as follows:

"With Cobocards (Collaboration Cards) students can create flashcards in collaboration, i.e. someone founds a team and everyone creates flashcards. If you have 5 team members and each of them creates 20 flashcards the next day each of them has a set of 100 cards."

You can print them and study offline, edit them again and again, compare with older versions, check the status of your knowledge, upload pictures and graphs, include formula with LaTeX, share your flashcards with friends, set a deadline for exams,...

It's long-term goal is "to make...
