The way Reverse Dictionary works is pretty simple. It simply looks through tonnes of dictionary definitions and grabs the ones that most closely match your search query. For example, if you type something like «longing for a time in the past», then the engine will return «nostalgia». The engine has indexed several million definitions so far, and at this stage it’s starting to give consistently good results (though it may return weird results sometimes). It acts a lot like a thesaurus except that it allows you to search with a definition, rather than a single word. So in a sense, this tool is a «search engine for words», or a sentence to word converter.
I made this tool after working on Related Words which is a very similar tool, except it uses a bunch of algorithms and multiple databases to find similar words to a search query. That project is closer to a thesaurus in the sense that it returns synonyms for a word (or short phrase) query, but it also returns many broadly related words that aren’t included in thesauri. So this project, Reverse Dictionary, is meant to go hand-in-hand with Related Words to act as a word-finding and brainstorming toolset. For those interested, I also developed Describing Words which helps you find adjectives and interesting descriptors for things (e.g. waves, sunsets, trees, etc.).
In case you didn’t notice, you can click on words in the search results and you’ll be presented with the definition of that word (if available). The definitions are sourced from the famous and open-source WordNet database, so a huge thanks to the many contributors for creating such an awesome free resource.
Special thanks to the contributors of the open-source code that was used in this project: Elastic Search, @HubSpot, WordNet, and @mongodb.

Example:
In order to make use of the database, we need a way to perform what are called CRUD tasks. That is to say we need a way to create new data items, read and find existing data items, update data items with new information, and delete outdated data items. This is the responsibility of a database engine. A collection of programs that are able to sift through the database items and perform the required tasks. And in order for you, or I, or any other end user to access the database engine, we need to go through some sort of database application.
I don’t understand why the script writer opted for I instead of me. Is this grammatically a better way to say that? I think that me in the following example sounds a lot smoother than with an I plugged in instead: «in order for me to help you with your homework, we’re gonna have to find someplace quiet where no one will disturb us»?

This is a mistake, perhaps the result of hypercorrection on the part of the writer.
As the object of the preposition for, the pronoun I should actually be me.
A grammatically correct version of the sentence would read as:
And in order for you, me, or any other end user to access the database engine, we need to go through some sort of database application.
answered Mar 24, 2015 at 2:00
When a pronoun is the object of «for», it must be in the appropriate case. English doesn’t have cases like some other languages, but it has something similar to cases in the pronouns:
case pronoun example
nominative he; she; I He is here. I am fine.
possessive his; her(s); my, mine Is that my pen or {her pen / hers}?
accusative him; her; me Please find him.
dative him; her; me That is for him. Give it to me.
instrumental him; her; me Will you go with her or with me?
The construction «for [pronoun] to [verb-inf]» resembles the dative case and requires the «him, her, me» cases, probably due to the use of the preposition «for».
By contract, «in order that [pronoun] [verb-inf]» is different. Here [pronoun] is the subject to the verb, and so that is the nominative case: it requires «he, she, I». This sentence is in the present subjunctive.

The source of your confusion is that you are starting with an error in grammar which seems to demand another error and then naturally leads to your dichotomy. Try:
«In order that you, or I, or any other end user may access the database engine…»
«In order that I may access the database engine…»
«In order that I may help you with your homework…»

It’s «in order for me to do something». In this form of use, «for» comes with a whole «accusativum cum infinitivum» phrase. There is probably a different expression in English grammar for it but that’s what it amounts to in several other Indogermanic languages.
In constructs where «I/me» is followed by an actual indicative verb form, «I» may be more appropriate. But when the followup is the infinitive «to xxx», «me» is what would be used.
