Integrating Dong Chinese Character Wiki data.


a few apps recently have been using the data from this website, to provide component information in their apps. The data is free to use, and is publicly edited. The editors do a good job of consulting recent research, and avoiding plagiarism.
The data is very clean and made to be able to be adapted to other apps. The entire database is normally published once a month.
Would be nice to expand on the free options on Pleco.
the data can be found at the bottom of this page.

Thanks - looks like the main thing this would be adding to our existing data is the character breakdowns (which type of compound + which component has each role)?

Yes that's right.
it also has data on which old chinese and middle chinese pronunciation corresponds to which mandarin pronunciation of a given character, which might come into use later. though there's probably a different more direct source for that data.
