[Feature Request] Kanji Decomposition #2229

Open georgewsinger opened 2 years ago

georgewsinger commented 2 years ago

Is there a way to add "Kanji Decomposition" views to Yomichan, as supported by some Japanese dictionaries online? Here is an example:

Perhaps by replacing KANJIDIC.zip with another Kanji dictionary that supports Kanji decomposition? Or perhaps by syncing up with and searching existing websites and showing that view in the Yomichan iFrame?

I plan to eventually make a dictionary with the decomposition info available here, though I do have a dictionary already with some decomposition available here using information from jpdb.io. Keep in mind it has inaccuracies because the jpdb decompositions are meant for memorizing kanji, so some components are unnecessarily broken down when they are not commonly used.
