What is Auto Furigana?
'Auto Furigana' is a helpful Chrome extension specifically designed for learners of Japanese language. This tool automatically inserts romaji rubi characters above any Japanese text, providing readability for those still learning the script. Moreover, it also offers translated meanings of words when you mouseover them. Note, however, that the extension may not guarantee perfectly accurate word segmentation and kanji pronunciation due to the complexities of Japanese language.

It works but... could you make one that uses Hiragana/Katakana instead of Romanji? reading romanji is 10x times more annoying than HIragana and Katakana
