It supports traditional and simplified, as well as pinyin and bopomofo :)

It's already possible to switch instantly between pinyin and bopomofo, and I'm working on letting users switch between simplified/traditional, but this is also a non-trivial problem. For now, the app will follow the user's lead: if you enter traditional text, it will return traditional text, and same goes for simplified.

i've been working on a new script converter (https://github.com/creolio/mandarinTamer) for simplified and traditional (taiwanese) mandarin. almost finished--needs a few tests yet, but should be more accurate than opencc and google translate. would love to chat more about your tool. i'll send you an email.
