How it works

  • Read the term, recall the meaning, then reveal. Grade yourself honestly: Got it moves the card up a box, Again sends it back to the start.
  • Three boxes — New → Learning → Known. Sessions serve what you're still learning first, sprinkled with a few known cards so nothing rusts. That's the Leitner system, minus the shoebox.
  • Everything stays on this device: progress lives in your browser's local storage. Reset wipes it.
  • Want the full context for a term? The glossary links every entry into the atlas.

All definitions are the glossary's own — simplified on purpose, for education only. Being able to define a term is the start of understanding it, not the end; the product and concept pages carry the rest.

A suggested routine

  • Ten minutes, twenty cards, most days beats an hour once a week — spacing is the entire trick.
  • Pair the deck with a learning path: read a product page, then let its vocabulary resurface here a day later.
  • When the Known box holds most of the deck, sit the Market Exam — recall under mild pressure is the real test.
