# Studyflash documentation

> The user guide for Studyflash, a study app that turns a student's own course
> material into flashcards, quizzes, mock exams, summaries, mind maps and
> podcasts. Entries are described by the problems and phrasings customers write
> in, not by feature name alone. Every URL is the markdown source of the page.
