If you're using the offline version you'll have to unzip the files. Once you've done that, you can access the website offline by opening any of the index.html files in the browser of your choice. It should have the same experience as the online version, however, whenever new changes are made they will not be available; you'll have to download the latest version of the repository to get them.

Colloquial Kansai Dictionary supports a few keyboard shortcuts which you can use to make things easier. These shortcuts are typically used via CTRL+ALT+KEY for Windows and CMD+SHIFT+KEY for Mac.

If you have any suggestions, feedback, questions, or bugs to report, feel free to open a new issue in this repository. For alternative contact methods and detailed reporting information, please see the report page for Colloquial Kansai Dictionary.
