Anki's deb package is 3MB, Windows installer is 24MB and OSX installer is 30MB. The package in the debian repos is 854K and the installed size is 5.4MB, with 2.7MB in locale files. I imagine the "huge" 20MB+ installer file you are put off by includes a ton of third-party libraries/tools to ease installation for novices.


Thanks for the numbers. It was on OSX. Checking out some different flashcard options I was surprised about the 30 MB size for Anki. - But yeah, 30 is not 'huge' nowadays... I'm likely still spoiled by old Delphi applications.


I imagine the extra cruft includes a ton of third party libraries. I think the tarball was 4 MBs. Just grab the source.
