flashcards's Introduction

Flash Cards

A minimal react app which helps you prepare for GRE by improving your vocabulary.

It uses soothing, and aesthetically pleasing color combinations present in nature (thanks canva!) to improve concenteration, and is redundatly minimal to immerse the user and divert all the focus on the words. A modern twist on the age old tradition of using physcial flash cards to learn words.
