Dictionary App Builder

Apps can be built directly from data exported from any of SIL’s lexicon tools: Fieldworks Language Explorer, WeSay and Lexique Pro. Launch Dictionary App Builder, follow the steps in the New App Wizard and click the Build App button. No programming experience is necessary.

The apps you build are easy to use, with a clean, user-friendly interface. You can include pictures, audio for headwords and example sentences, search, and links between lexical items. Reversal indexes are built from the gloss fields and are accessible via tabs in the app interface.

The apps do not require an internet connection. All content can be packaged together for offline use and distribution, or audio can be made available online for download when needed.
