SuperMemo will help you learn faster!
It is enough that you spend 3 minutes reading this page to be able to begin learning with SuperMemo!
For a good start, you only need two options:
- Add new - to add new questions and answers to SuperMemo (keyboard: Alt+A)

Start learning now! Initially you may doubt the power of SuperMemo. Trust it for 1-2 weeks and you will begin to understand it better. Add at least 50-100 questions-answer pairs related to your job, your life, or your interests. See how SuperMemo schedules the material for review.
Summary: The ABC of SuperMemo
- Add new material with Add new (Alt+A)
- Be sure to review your daily dose of material with Learn (Ctrl+L)
