Dictionfairy solves a simple problem. When I'm reading something, I may need to look up a word. But then I'd have to open a new tab (or, even worse, a whole browser!), navigate the dictionary, then finally search my word. But not anymore - Dictionfairy hangs around above other tabs and waits for a hotkey. Depending on the hotkey, you'll get instant results for either the word you've already selected or the next word you click on your screen. It's that simple. You can choose the dictionary you'd like to use for your words; as of right now, Dictionfairy comes with support for dwds.de (de-de), leo.org (de-en), WordReference.com (fr-en), and Merriam-Webster (en-en). The app also includes functionality for configuring your preferred dictionary if you'd like to get results in a language I haven't added yet. You'll find instructions for this (and more!) in the docs, and you can download Dictionfairy from the GitHub link above.
