What it does

Description coming soon. We haven't written a summary yet. The line above is the developer's own description; the developer's README is linked above.

What you'll need

Detected automatically
  • An API key for some featuresWorks without one: Word lookup with the free Youdao dictionary (the default). Needs a key (OpenAI, DeepSeek, Wordnik and Merriam-Webster): AI translation of phrases and sentences needs an API key from the chosen provider (Ollama local can be left blank); Wordnik and Merriam-Webster dictionaries need keys.
  • Or: a model on your own computerIt can use a local model such as Ollama
