## プロジェクトの歴史と使われ方

define is a Go command-line dictionary and thesaurus client that can query multiple reference sources from the terminal.

### プロジェクトの歴史

The README describes define as a command-line dictionary and thesaurus application with multiple sources. Its configuration model was built for CLI use: command-line flags override environment variables, which override JSON configuration files.

The public release history starts with v0.1.0 in March 2018, followed by small 0.1.x releases and later 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 releases through March 2024.

### 採用の歴史

define is packaged for Homebrew and also supports `go install`, so it fits both package-manager installation and Go developer workflows.

### 使われ方

The tool is used as a terminal reference lookup. Its README calls out command-line flags for one-off use, environment variables for API keys, and configuration files for dotfile-friendly defaults such as preferred sources.

### パッケージ好きにとっての重要性

define is interesting as a small example of packaging API-backed reference data for the shell. It has the classic CLI shape - flags, environment variables, config files, release binaries, and `go install` - while depending on external dictionary services for some sources.

### タイムライン

- 2018: v0.1.0 is published.
- 2023: v0.2.0 and v0.3.0 are published.
- 2024: v0.4.0 is published.

### Related projects

- The README documents Merriam-Webster and Oxford dictionary API credentials as source-specific integrations.
