What does this application do ?

This application is doing fast translation with keyboard shortcuts.

Which os do you support ?

Just only linux, windows and mac os is coming soon.

How does it work ?

This app gets current copied text from the system clipboard and then translates the text via yandex-api and shows translation like a notification.Immediately after translation, clipboard (original text) value is changed with translated text so you can do control + V to paste it. By using this application you do not need to open new web pages and copy paste around.
