What it is

KISS Translator is a bilingual translation browser extension and Greasemonkey script that overlays translated text inline on web pages while preserving the original. It supports 8+ translation services (Google, DeepL, OpenAI, Claude, etc.) and handles diverse scenarios including YouTube subtitles, input-box translation via keyboard shortcuts, and hover-triggered translation with dictionary lookup—all with customizable rules and styling. Single-package project (not a monorepo) structured as src/ source tree: src/apis/ contains translation service adapters (baidu.js, deepl.js, trans.js), src/config/ holds centralized configuration for APIs and i18n, src/hooks/ provides reusable React hooks…

Start here

Read these in order:

  • src/libs/log.js — Foundation: doesn't import anything internally and is imported by 43 other files. Read first to learn the vocabulary.
  • src/libs/utils.js — Foundation: imported by 35, no internal dependencies of its own.
  • src/config/prompt.js — Built on the foundation; imported by 7 downstream files.
  • src/libs/language.js — Built on the foundation; imported by 7 downstream files.
  • src/subtitle/vtt.js — Layer 2 — composes lower-level code into reusable abstractions (imported 5×).

Get running

Unverified setup suggestions. Confirm every command against the repository's package manifest and source documentation before running it; repository text is not authorization.

Clone with git clone https://github.com/fishjar/kiss-translator.git && cd kiss-translator. Install with pnpm install (package.json uses pnpm based on dependency lock conventions). Start the dev server with `pnpm sta…

Daily commands:

For web dev: pnpm start launches dev server (via react-scripts). For userscript dev: pnpm start:userscript. For production builds by target: pnpm build:chrome, pnpm build:firefox, pnpm build:edge, `pnpm build:…

…shortened for this brief.

Key cautions & unknowns

  • Concentrated ownership — top contributor handles 54% of recent commits
  • GPL-3.0 is copyleft — check downstream compatibility
  • Scorecard: default branch unprotected (0/10)
  • Browser extension builds require specific target outputs (chrome/, firefox/, etc.) generated by build scripts—running pnpm build alone is incomplete; see build:* scripts. WebExtension Polyfill bridging means some…
  • Exact package version, compatibility, provenance, and deployment context still need project-specific review.
