Isolated flashcards aren't editable together in context

Short note of something I've been thinking about.

Let's say you go and learn about DNS. You create several flashcards:

  1. What does DNS stand for?
  2. What is a DNS A record?

and so on...

But if you want to edit these flashcards together, they're inherently disconnected. It makes drafting the way that you want to learn the information more difficult because you have to go back and edit the flashcards that you made originally.

As I build out a new tool I want to consider: how can the output of my study session naturally be a unit that's reviewable and editable in the future?
