Jargon Dictionnaires application pour Android description
Jargon is a fully offline reader for the Jargon File — the hacker culture dictionary that gave the word hacker its original meaning, decades before it came to mean cracker. Compiled by Eric S. Raymond and Guy L. Steele and continued today as a community project, its the closest thing hacking has to an etymology.
Over 2,300 entries, all bundled in the app:
- Browse alphabetically with a fast-scroll index
- Instant search across terms and definitions
- Tap any cross-referenced term to jump straight to it
- Favorite entries for quick access later
- Surprise me with a random entry
Zero permissions. Zero network access, ever — the dictionary ships inside the app, favorites stay on your device, nothing is ever sent anywhere. No accounts, no ads, no analytics.
