Creator plugins
The nine Notebooker creators that turn a notebook into flashcards, charts, infographics, mind maps, textbooks, essays, study guides, slideshows, and timelines.
Creators turn the sources in a notebook into a finished artifact you can study, present, or share. Pick a creator, set a few options, and Notebooker generates it from your content. Each creator is powered by a well-known open-source library, and several let you choose exactly what kind of output you want.

Flashcards
Generates question-and-answer cards from your notebook for spaced-repetition study,
with a built-in review mode. Export the deck as an Anki .apkg to study in Anki
or any compatible app.
- Options: number of cards (1–100, default 15), deck name.
- Library: genanki for the Anki export.
Charts
Generates data charts rendered with the AntV Infographic engine. Ask for a specific chart type in your instructions, or let Notebooker pick.
- Chart types: line, bar, column, pie, donut (several card/badge styles), word cloud, and rotated word cloud.
- Options: theme (
auto,light,dark,hand-drawn), how many charts (1–6). - Library: AntV Infographic — browse the examples gallery to see each chart type.
Infographics
The same engine as Charts, but for non-chart visuals — diagrams that explain relationships and structure rather than plot numbers.
- Graphic families:
- Lists — bullets, grids, checklists, waterfalls, zig-zags.
- Sequences — steps, stairs, funnels, pyramids, roadmaps, timelines.
- Comparisons — side-by-side, quadrants, SWOT.
- Hierarchies — org charts, trees, mind-map-style branches.
- Relations — node-and-edge flow diagrams.
- Options: theme (
auto,light,dark,hand-drawn), how many (1–6). - Library: AntV Infographic — examples gallery.
Mind maps
Generates a single-root mind map of your material. Export to Markdown, PNG, or SVG.
- Options: maximum depth (2–8, default 5), how many (1–6).
- Format: Mermaid mindmap syntax under the hood.
Textbooks
Generates a full multi-chapter textbook from your notebook, optionally with practice exercises.
- Options: number of chapters (1–20), audience (high school / undergraduate / graduate / general), include exercises, output formats.
- Download: HTML, PDF, and/or EPUB.
- Library: Quarto (with the Tectonic LaTeX engine for PDF).
Essays
Generates a structured essay in a style of your choosing.
- Options: variant (argumentative / expository / comparative), length (short / medium / long), output formats.
- Download: HTML and/or PDF.
- Library: Quarto.
Study guides
Generates a study guide that walks topic by topic: key concepts, what you need to know, common misconceptions, and a glossary.
- Options: number of topics (1–20), audience, output formats.
- Download: HTML and/or PDF.
- Library: Quarto.
Slideshows
Generates a slide deck — including data slides whose charts and infographics are pre-rendered with the same AntV engine as the Charts creator.
- Slide types: title, section, bullets, image+text, chart, infographic.
- Options: number of slides (3–40), theme (reveal.js themes incl.
light,dark,serif,moon,solarized,night,league), output formats. - Download: HTML (interactive reveal.js), PPTX (PowerPoint), and/or PDF.
- Libraries: reveal.js + Quarto, with AntV Infographic for data slides.
Timelines
Generates an interactive timeline of events, optionally grouped into labeled lanes. Handles plain years, full dates, and date-times.
- Item types: point, range, box, background.
- Options: maximum events (3–60), grouped lanes on/off.
Tips
- Steer the output in your instructions. For charts and infographics especially, naming the type you want (“show this as a donut chart”, “lay this out as a SWOT”) gets you the layout you have in mind. Browse the AntV examples gallery for ideas.
- Pick formats you’ll actually use. Document creators (textbook, essay, study guide, slideshow) let you choose which files to produce — fewer formats generate faster.
- Long notebooks still work. If your content is larger than the model’s limit, Notebooker automatically condenses it before generating.
