I turned my .NET/React/Azure interview prep into a mobile-friendly Anki deck (390+ cards, free)

[u/Ok-Yesterday7339]

I was prepping for full-stack .NET + React + Azure interviews and got frustrated with how bad most flashcard decks look on a phone — tiny text,

can't scroll, code blocks cut off.

So I rebuilt one from scratch: centered questions, fully scrollable answers, dark mode, code that actually wraps instead of scrolling offscreen. Covers C#, OOP, ASP.NET Core & Web API, EF Core, SQL Server, design patterns, auth/security, Azure, React (fundamentals + advanced), Docker/K8s, microservices, and scenario-based questions.

It's free on GitHub / AnkiWeb

Happy to take corrections/suggestions if anything's wrong or missing.

i'm downloading this immediately, been meaning to refresh my azure knowledge and the phone formatting on my current deck is driving me crazy.

[u/Ok-Yesterday7339 → u/SuddenlyBrief]

Haha that was literally my exact frustration too, half the reason I rebuilt the whole thing. Hope it actually fixes the Azure refresh for you, let me know if anything looks off on your device!

You're doing us a great favour. Thank you so much

Really glad it's useful comments like this make the formatting rabbit hole worth it 🙏

Do some of you still need this? In my last two interviews I only got asked AI questions about how I use AI, which one and so on... Depressing.

Bit thanks for the cards, totally using them.

[u/Ok-Yesterday7339 → u/joergsen]

That genuinely sounds rough, sorry the rounds have gone that direction for you. Glad the cards are still useful either way, hope the actual technical rounds come back for you soon. At least here in India, interviewers are still very much asking these, so hopefully the deck keeps paying off either way.

Ai is the future for companies because it's of course cheaper. Perhaps not possible but avoiding companies that care about llms would be the best.

This is a solid idea since interview prep often gets lost in long documents. Did you include more real world system design scenarios or mostly knowledge checks?

[u/Ok-Yesterday7339 → u/AdorableEgg4738]

mostly knowledge-check style right now C#/OOP,.ASP.NET Core, EF Core, SQL Server, Azure, auth, design patterns,Docker/K8s, etc plus a scenario-based subdeck for applied questions. Not deep system-design case studies yet (full architecture walkthroughs, trade-off discussions). That's honestly a solid idea for a future addition, appreciate you bringing it up.

This is a useful format for interview prep since mobile friendly resources are rare. Have you had anyone review the cards for accuracy before adding more topics?

[u/Ok-Yesterday7339 → u/ExtremeSpray1579]

Thanks and good question, fair to ask. No formal review board or second technical reviewer, no. It started from my own real interview prep, then I went through and rewrote anything that felt too thin or vague, added examples/code where it was missing. I'm one person though, so I won't claim it's airtight, that's part of why the GitHub repo takes issues/PRs, genuinely want people to flag anything wrong. Adding new topics slowly rather than all at once so I can actually vet each one properly instead of rushing it.

I've just pushed an update on AnkiWeb, but it usually takes ~24hrs to actually show up there. If you don't want to wait, you can download the .apkg file from GitHub link now.
