Wikireader - Dictionary Enabled Wikipedia Reader

Wikireader is a website reader with a built in dictionary, primarily targeted at reading wikipedia.

Installation (Android only)

Find it on the play store: Wikireader

Or clone and build it from source.

Usage

Upon installation the app shows a screen that allows one to select the languages they'd like to read in. Tapping the check box activates a language and will prompt the user to select which languages they'd like to translate to. Tapping the language itself will show a list of websites to show for that language.

Once setup is complete, tap the globe icon in the top-left to select a website. While reading e.g. wikipedia, double-tap a word to see its definition in the dictionary.

This is a side-project and still has some rough edges.
