As a reader of epic fantasy and sci-fi, I often find myself reaching for my phone to look up an obscure side character — or the difference between “Genebackis” and “Genebaris”. So I built runik to bring in-world definitions directly onto my e-reader and stay immersed in the story.
Runik parses the contents of fan wikis into Kobo and Kindle compatible dictionaries. It uses the device’s built-in word lookup feature, so there’s no jailbreaking required and definitions can be used offline.
It’s still in early development and is built with Go (Wails) + Svelte + Dictutil — feedback is appreciated!
Note: Kindle support requires kindlegen, which comes bundled with the Kindle Previewer app (details in the README).
