What it does
A browser extension that translates the current page — or just the text you select — through Google, Bing or Yandex, with nothing to configure beyond installing it. Officially distributed for Firefox on desktop and Android; the Chrome, Edge and Brave builds are still listed as coming. Translation means the page text goes to whichever service you pick, which rules it out for internal systems and anything confidential. MPL-2.0.
Summary based on the project's own description. The Japanese page has a fuller beginner guide: setup difficulty, what to prepare, and a step-by-step start.
