This is very helpful with great design! It will be even better if the learning curve of adding custom sources is lower. I still couldn't add cambridge dictionary source into it: tried multiple variations and still doesn't work properly. Such as "https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english-chinese-simplified//definer/iframe?text={str}&lang={lang}"
