# Idea
This is a Chrome Extension for language learning. Lets the user annotate words or phrases with a translation. After saving the translation the translated word/phrase will be highlighted in all occurences and the provided translation will be shown on hover.
# Dependencies
- [Google fonts](https://fonts.google.com/) are used via a CDN.
# Workflow
Typical usecase scenario:
- Select any text fragment on a page;
- Type in a translation;
- Click 'Add to Keera'.
Afterwards the fragment will be highlighted on all pages when encountered. Translation will be shown on hover.
A fragment can be deleted as well:
- Rightclick on a highlighted word;
- Click 'Delete'.

# To do
- When something is selected show small icon at first, and let the user expand it if they actually want to add the selected word to Keera;
- Let the user set inline popup location in settings;
- Limit popup menu size;
- Implement active search in dictionary in popup menu;
- Resolve issues with Z-index of the inline popup;
- Make inline popup draggable;
- Implement downloading and uploading word sets from/to Keera in .txt format.
