Gomi is a Python package used to store and manage Note Types for Anki in a git repository. At Ajatt-Tools, we store our note types here. Gomi provides a super user-friendly mechanism of importing and exporting note types, and everyone is welcome to add their templates to our collection by making a pull request.

Prerequisites

GNU/Linux

Install Python 3.12 or later if you haven't already.

Windows

Windows is not recommended because it is malware.

<details>

Install Python from the Microsoft Store or check if you already have the good version putting on your file explorer search bar

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\WindowsApps\python3

If you have the correct version, you can just close the python's window that just popped up.

Make sure to add python3 to the PATH. The path you need to add should look like C:\Users\[YourUsername]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\python3.

If you don't have the python installed, when you'll put this command into the search bar, it will open a microsoft store window directly on the correct python version, and you just need to click Download.

After doing this step, you can make sure that everything is good by opening the command prompt with Windows+R, cmd and put the command:

python3 -m

If everything's good, you should get a response like : Argument expected for the -m option
