## Description

STranslate is a desktop translation application that integrates optical character recognition with translation services. It functions as a screen OCR tool designed to capture digital text from images or the display to make the content editable and convertible between languages.

The software provides a real-time workflow for screen text translation, allowing the conversion of foreign language text from software or documents into a native language without manual copying and pasting.

The system manages the end-to-end process from screen-capture buffer processing and text recognition to asynchronous translation via an API-driven pipeline. The user interface is built using a WPF framework with XAML-defined layouts.
