PopUp Encyclopedia — Parth Parikh

Popup Encyclopedia is a blazingly fast dictionary/encyclopedia which can be used to search any word or collection of words. It supports double-click-on-text navigation. Double-click-on-text navigation is a feature by which you can double-click on any text in the popup window to get it's meaning without having to type it again in search box.

• Supports word-lemmatization and word-stemming to increase accuracy.
• Clean and minimalistic UI.
