A simple web-based flashcard application built with Django to help users study and review topics using a spaced repetition system (inspired by the Leitner system). Users can create, update, and review flashcards organized into numbered boxes, with the ability to move cards between boxes based on whether they answer correctly.
- Create flashcards with questions, answers, and box numbers (1 to 5).
- View all flashcards or filter by box number.
- Check a random card from a specific box and move it based on whether the answer was correct.
- Update existing flashcards.
- Track card creation dates and organize them by box and recency.
- Simple navigation with links to each box showing the number of cards.

- View All Cards: Go to /card-list/ to see all flashcards, sorted by box and creation date.
- Review Cards by Box: Visit /box/<box_number>/ (e.g., /box/1/) to see cards in a specific box. A random card will be displayed for review.
- Check a Card: Submit the form on the box page to mark whether you answered correctly (solved=True) or not (solved=False). The card will move to the next box if correct or back to box 1 if incorrect.
