The application is built with Tauri, and Koharu uses a combination of object detection and a transformer-based OCR.

For translation, Koharu uses an OpenAI-compatible API to chat and obtain the translation result. For more details about the tech, read the README at https://github.com/mayocream/koharu

I plan to add segment and inpaint features to Koharu...

I learn Rust for 3 months, and it's my first Rust-written application!
