I stumbled upon this project by chance, and being a fan of Anki, my first instinct was to suggest adding spaced repetition to the app. Support for importing Anki packages will also be great for adoption, as Anki is popular and has numerous card decks created in its format.

Hi, thank you for your suggestion. I didn't know Anki, so I'll be looking into it in the future. I gather from its docs that its "Card" data structure is more versatile, and doesn't necessarily contain the same kind of information as a Psittacus "Proposition", so maybe a "convert Anki then edit" option will be the way to go. I may also take a look into a simple spaced repetition algorithm, and whether this can be made the default way of correcting user mistakes, or has to be made into a separate option.

Yes, exactly. This page of the Anki manual explains basic terminology: https://docs.ankiweb.net/getting-started.html
Additionally, for a more technical take, this page has notes about the database structure.

One simple option is to let the user decide where each Anki field should be mapped to in a Psittacus proposition.

But for now, I think implementing a simple spaced repetition system is more important than Anki interoperability.
