What is a translation?

Bibi is a handy translation and dictionary application that supports cross word/screenshot translation. It has access to translation and dictionary services from more than 10 service providers and runs on the desktop for Windows, macOS and Linux.

At present, Bizet is still in the early development stage, and some native functions are not supported on platforms other than macOS. Please keep an eye on the development progress of Bizet.

Although it can be translated after input content through the main interface, it is not convenient for daily use, so we also provide two screen words.

If you don’t want to use shortcut keys to bring up the translation interface, try integrating translation into PopClip.

The technical details

To enable Flutter to use some of its native features, I have developed 4 desktop native plug-ins for resize Windows, register and listen shortcuts, fetch words from the screen, or display tray ICONS.
