eeeXun/gtt

Google Translate TUI (Originally). Currently supports Apertium, Bing, DeepL, DeepLX, Google, LibreTranslate, Reverso.

What it solves

This project provides a terminal-based user interface (TUI) for accessing various translation services. It allows users to translate text between languages directly from the command line without needing a browser, streamlining the translation workflow for developers and power users.

How it works

gtt acts as a client that connects to multiple translation backends. It supports several providers, including Google Translate, DeepL (free API), Bing, Apertium, LibreTranslate, and Reverso. Users can configure the tool via YAML files for API keys and server addresses (especially for self-hosted options like DeepLX or LibreTranslate).

Who it’s for

Developers, Linux/macOS users, and terminal-centric users who prefer to translate text quickly within their shell environment.

Highlights

  • Multi-provider support: Integrates with Google, DeepL, Bing, and others.
  • Text-to-Speech (TTS): Built-in shortcuts to play audio for both source and destination text.
  • Customizable Interface: Supports custom themes and remappable keybindings for a personalized experience.
  • Flexible Installation: Available via AUR, Nix, Docker, or as a Go binary.
  • Clipboard Integration: Works with xclip, wl-clipboard, and OSC 52 for easy copying of translated text.

    ssnangua/ColorTxt

    ColorTxt (彩读) is a cross‑platform desktop novel reader built with Electron, Vue and Monaco. It reads plain‑text and simple e‑books, adds automatic chapter detection, custom colour‑highlighting, notes, dictionary, translation, multi‑voice TTS, and an AI Reading Assistant. The assistant uses local embedding models (BGE Small ZH, multilingual‑E5 Small) for RAG search and any OpenAI‑compatible chat model for plot analysis, mind‑map/word‑cloud generation, and smart formatting. It can also generate character cards and AI‑drawn portraits via text‑to‑image services. Features include book‑pack export (`.ctz/.ctzx`), WebDAV sync, Pomodoro timer, reading‑ruler, and “fish‑hiding” shortcuts. All AI/ML components can run locally, keeping costs low and preserving privacy.

    CodeGPT is a Go‑based CLI that uses LLM APIs (OpenAI, Azure, Gemini, Anthropic, Ollama, Groq, OpenRouter, LiteLLM) to auto‑generate Conventional‑Commit messages and short code‑review summaries. It installs a Git `prepare‑commit‑msg` hook, supports many providers, proxy settings, language translation, streaming output, and a flexible prompt/template system. Install via Homebrew, Chocolatey, an install script, pre‑compiled binary, or `go install`. Configure API keys (or dynamic helpers), choose models, and customize prompts. Ideal for developers who want AI‑assisted commit messages and quick reviews directly from the terminal.
