Many things remain undocumented, and the docs that do exist only provide enough info to build Anki and then some. Comments within files are basically nonexistent.

Some suggestions for documentation to add:

- Comments within files (docstrings etc)
- A list of descriptions of each file (or at least the important ones)
- A database structure similar or exact to [AnkiDroid’s](https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/wiki/Database-Structure)
- A layout of the GUI

I’m stupid so I need very specific instructions or I won’t understand.
