DictHubExtension

DictHubExtension is a browser extension aiming to bring convenient and consistent word query experience in modern browsers.

Internally, it fetches web page from translation/dictionary website, and shows result in same content page to avoid opening new tab.

To support different translation/dictionary sources, a light-weight plugin system is built to help user customize the the best translation preference.

Language Support

DictHubExtension's translation is backed by translation/dictionary sources.

With proper plugin, DictHubExtension can support any needed language.

What's interesting?

DictHubExtension (and some plugins) is written mostly in Kotlin lang, and compile into JavaScript.
