Description

Many people have requested a way of integrating the full version of DPD into whichever website they are currently using.

A simple solution to this is a Chrome extension which can sit side-by-side with the main website, much like one would use GoldenDict.

The functionality is fairly straightforward.

  • pick up all clicks (or double clicks?) on words in the webpage
  • use the captured text to send a request to www.dpddict.
  • /gd endpoint returns pure HTML, or we can create a custom endpoint for the task
  • display the returned HTML
  • CSS can be styled according to the current website

For starters, the absolute minimum would be a click and display, then can iterate once that's working.
