From @suhasm

I tried out DictTango, an android dictionary app that works with MDict (.mdx) dictionaries. It seems to be superior to GoldenDict. It loads 200+ dictionaries smoothly, has full text search support with regex, ability to group dictionaries together, LLM access and more. I've been looking for something like this for a long time now.

I converted the dictionaries on indic-dict to .mdx. You can download them here if you want to try out DictTango. I used this script for the conversion (It's not very intuitive). Use the nice guide here on setting DictTango up.

There is not much documentation online about MDict (mostly on Chinese forums), but it seems to use HTML for structure and CSS for design.

You could consider making MDict available on indic-dict along with Stardict?
