WordServe is a minimalistic and high performance Autocompletion plugin.
It suggests top ranking words when typing and exapnsions on abbreviations! simple.
You can insert them by pressing So many desktop tools and apps I use on daily basis do not offer any form of word completion, AI/NLP driven or otherwise, there are times when I need to quickly find a word or phrase that I know exists in my vocabulary, but I don't feel like typing for that long. Think of this as a basic nvim-cmp or vscode Intellisense daemon. Suggestions menu appear when typing any words + Expansions on text via abbreviations, defined and customisable by you.

Inspired heavily by fluent-typer extension made by Bartosz Tomczyk.
- Its a great extension to use on browsers, but I wanted something that can be used basically in any electron/local webapps with plugin clients, but also make it wayyy faster and more efficient since the depeendencies used there are way too bloated (C++ ...) and had too many bindings for my liking, and also more imporatantly, make this a good practice for me to learn how radix tries work for prefixes.
