Tools for working on openings ? • page 1/1 • General Chess Discussion • lichess.org

Hello to all,

I'm looking for tools or methods to work on my opening repertoires and to practice them in order to memorize them.

I usually work with Anki and the spaced repetition memorization systems.
But it doesn't fit very well with something dynamic like the openings.

I've found leads on https://fr.chesstempo.com/ or https://listudy.org/en, but it doesn't allow me to be very agile.

The idea would be to be able to import repertoires of openings from studies or books.
Then practice them by spaced repetition, and finally, evolve them when an opponent makes a move I didn't know.

How do you usually do this?
Do you have any suggestions?

There is a free GUI software LucasChessR, It has a feature for Repetition of your Openings. Hope, it helps.

Have a look at chessable.

ok.

open source anki has a chess plugin. I've never used it. anki is flashcard software, it uses recall and spaced repetition which is scientifically proven effective method to memorise. won't necessarily make you a better chess player but will help you memorise openings.

Look closer at the opening trainer on chesstempo.com. It's the best I've found.

Some alternatives:

Lucas Chess, Chess Position Trainer, and chessable.

Here's a page that details how to use Lucas Chess to learn openings in the way you're describing.
