Ldoce is a server built with Node.js and TypeScript that scrapes the Longman Dictionary page for a given word and returns the extracted data in a standardized JSON format, suitable for use by AI agents. It retrieves information like the introduction, related topics, entries (verb and noun), corpus examples, and word origin, structuring it into a JSON object.
