I have implemented a small tool that converts Simplified Chinese Hanzi characters to pinyin and/or English. It's free and tested on Windows and Linux.

https://github.com/pgquiles/hanzitopinyin/releases/
I use it as a learning tool: I download a TV show in Chinese with subtitles (which are always hanzi!), then add new subtitle tracks Hanzi + Pinyin, or English + Hanzi + Pinyin.
Hanzi is converted to Pinyin using a dictionary with 25,500 characters, which should be enough for most use cases.
English translations are generated using DeepL (you need to register with DeepL to get a free key).

扇 子.Để học tiếng Trung hiệu quả, bạn nên học vững phát âm và pinyin, xây dựng vốn từ vựng theo chủ đề bằng flashcard, nghe nhạc, xem phim để cải thiện kỹ năng nghe nói, luyện tập nói trước gương và thực hành giao tiếp liên tục. Hãy kiên trì, đặt mục tiêu rõ ràng và kết hợp nhiều phương pháp học như đọc đuổi (shadowing) để đạt hiệu quả cao nhất.PINYIN TABLETo memorize Chinese characters, break them down into their components (radicals) and use mnemonic devices like creating stories or associations for them. Consistent practice, such as writing by hand, using flashcards, and learning characters in context, is also crucial for success.
Breaking down characters
Deconstruct into radicals: Instead of memorizing characters as a whole, learn to recognize and understand their individual components, called radicals. This can help you guess the meaning of new characters.
Use known characters: Build new characters from ones you already know, using components or structures you've already learned.
Using memory techniques
Create stories and visualizations: Make up stories or visualizations that connect a character's components and meaning. You can even incorporate pinyin into these stories.
Link characters with colors: Assign colors to different tones to help you internalize pronunciation without relying solely on pinyin, especially for intermediate learners.
Use flashcards: Create physical or digital flashcards with the character on one side and the pinyin, meaning, and maybe even a story or image on the other.
Practicing and reinforcing
Write by hand: Practice writing characters repeatedly to reinforce recognition and memorization. Say the pinyin and meaning out loud as you write.
Learn in context: Study characters as part of words and sentences, not in isolation. This helps you understand their meaning in different situations.
Read extensively: Read books, even children's books or parallel texts with side-by-side translations, to see characters in action.
Be consistent: Practice daily by setting a manageable goal, like learning a few new characters and reviewing older ones.
Other tips
Stay patient: Memorizing a large number of characters takes time and persistence, so be patient with yourself.
Use digital tools: Utilize apps and websites designed for language learning, such as flashcard apps like Anki.I uploaded "HSK 5-2 - Lesson 21 - Uncle Hanzi: The predestined love of an American for Chinese characters", enjoy it.
