Before starting to write the specific tutorial, let me briefly talk about the style of content I record in thino, whose information organization is inspired by Teacher Xu Zipei’s book “The Second Brain” (which I read on the Dedao APP).

Essentially, a card is organized as “information block + tags”. It is recommended to read Teacher Xu’s book, which explains the benefits of this information organization in great detail, and I believe it will be very inspiring to you.

Therefore, as shown in the figure above, every card I have in

In the file “Single File”, make one adjustment, which is to specify the “Deck Name”, to make reviewing convenient.

As shown in position 1 of the image above: add a ‘deck name’.

In normal use, after finishing writing notes in Thino, just run the “obsidian to anki” plugin. If the card ID appears in position 2 of the image above, it means the card has been generated normally.

The following images respectively show the card decks in the Anki software, the normal form of card generation in the original Thino file, and the normal generation of tags in the Anki software.
