Answers.Text: Agreed. Chesstempo is the best in my opinion for this. A bit of tweak in setting is required however to exploit the maximum of its capabilities.

Answers.Body: <p>Personally I use Chessable. It makes you play through all the variations when you review a course, and there are a bunch of free courses on there that are excellent for getting started with an opening.</p>
  <p>The Short &amp; Sweet series is pretty good. Sam Shankland, Anish Giri, and a bunch of other masters have some good S&amp;S courses that are 20-30 lines or so, as they are just a demo version of the massive &quot;Lifetime Repertoires&quot; series. They're great for club players.</p>
  <p>There are also free courses published by community members that are more extensive. I used the &quot;Ruy Lopez: Masterclass Edition&quot; course to learn a new opening that I now enjoy immensely.</p>
  <p>If those aren't enough for you, you can find some pretty low-priced courses on more or less anything you want. Lifetime Repertoires courses are expensive and have huge numbers of lines, but there are smaller ones you can get for a lower price. For example, I am an owner of &quot;Rafael Leitao's Najdorf Sicilian&quot; which was around $5 and has 150 lines or so.</p>
