Downloading for the first time

If you never used the deck before, you can download it straight away from AnkiWeb.

Upgrading to the latest version

If you are already using a version of the deck and would like to upgrade to the latest version, you first need to install the CrowdAnki add-on:

  1. Open Anki on your computer and select Tools > Add-ons > Get Add-ons.
  2. Paste the code 1788670778 and click OK.
  3. Restart Anki.

You’re now ready to upgrade:

  1. Go to the Releases page.
  2. Under Assets, download the file EA-numbers.zip.
  3. Extract the contents of the file to your computer.
  4. Open Anki and make sure your devices are all synchronized.
  5. Select File > CrowdAnki: Import from disk.
  6. Browse for and select the folder you extracted, named EA-numbers.
  7. Don’t change anything in the CrowdAnki Import Settings dialog box that opens—just press OK to start the import. A dialog box should then confirm that the import was successful.

Building the deck from the source file

The deck is created by pushing the contents of an org mode file to the Anki desktop app (with the Anki editor Emacs package), exporting the generated deck to a JSON file (with the CrowdAnki Anki add-on), and uploading this file to the current repository. If you are an Emacs user, you can simplify the process and create the deck directly from the source file. In case it helps, here is my anki-editor configuration:

(use-package anki-editor
  :after org
  :custom
  (anki-editor-create-decks t)
  (anki-editor-org-tags-as-anki-tags t)
  :init
  ;; github.com/louietan/anki-editor/issues/60#issuecomment-617441799
  (setq-default anki-editor-use-math-jax t)
  ;; create custom key map
  (progn
    (defvar anki-editor-mode-map (make-sparse-keymap))
    (add-to-list 'minor-mode-map-alist (cons 'anki-editor-mode
					     anki-editor-mode-map)))
  :config
  ;; github.com/louietan/anki-editor/issues/39#issuecomment-606156415
  (defun filter-out-p (str _ _)
    (replace-regexp-in-string "\n<p>\\|</p>\n\\|<p>\\|</p>" "" str))
  (setq anki-editor--ox-anki-html-backend
	(org-export-create-backend
	 :parent 'html
	 :filters
	 '((:filter-paragraph . filter-out-p))))
;; requires github.com/noctuid/general.el; otherwise use `:bind' and adjust the syntax
  :general
  ("A-i" 'anki-editor-mode)
  (anki-editor-mode-map
   "s-c" 'anki-editor-cloze-region
   "s-i" 'anki-editor-insert-note
   "s-p" 'anki-editor-push-notes))
