Larryc is an asynchronous dictionary-search engine that runs in your terminal with a pleasing UI. It is depending on the dictionary api. And, the UI is written using the Rich framework.
First of all, nobody these days carries dictionaries. Second of all, not everyone likes to use the browser for everything. Especially me. I feel like small things like this should be done in the terminal, which is fast and straight to point. Larryc is maybe going to solve the dictionary crysis. That's what I'm calling it.
