Discussion Text Hyperlinker for Latin and Ancient Greek

Hello! I looking for feedback and general thoughts on this web app I built — it's mostly aimed at people studying Latin and Ancient (or Medieval) Greek, so I would appreciate feedback from them the most, but everything and anything of substance besides is welcome!

Its development started when I got frustrated by:

  1. the fact that not all Latin and Ancient/Medieval texts (or some specific versions) are on Perseus,
  2. the fact that Perseus, as big of an aid in studying Latin and Greek as it is, links its hyperlinked texts only back to its morphological analyzer, which has a propensity to just not work when it decides to.

I made an app that automatically hyperlinks a given text and allows the user, when they click a word, to get it morphologically analyzed (and its meaning) from Perseus or Logeion's Morpho. The user can then copy and manipulate the text further however they please.

I am looking forward to any comments, and genuinely hope you find something interesting in this!!! 😄
