You have 60 seconds. Here's how to start learning anything in Ritsu.
1. Open the Learning Chat
Click the chat icon in the top-right of the dashboard, or press ⌘K on Mac (or Ctrl+K on Windows). The chat opens to a fresh thread.
2. Type a slash
Slash commands tell Ritsu what kind of learning session you want. Type / and you'll see the list pop up:
/flashcard— generate flashcards from any concept/quiz— get a focused quiz on a topic/explain— ask Ritsu to teach you something step-by-step/summarize— turn a long source into a study-sized brief
3. Pick one and finish the line
Type the rest of the line in plain English:
/flashcard binary search trees
Hit Enter and Ritsu will spin up a deck. You'll see flashcards stream in within a few seconds.
What's next
- Save the deck to review later — click the bookmark icon when the deck arrives.
- Try other commands — every slash command works the same way:
/command+ a one-line description. - See the full command reference — head to Learning Commands for every command, every option.
That's it. You're learning.
