  1. Introducing Aksharapad — a free, browser-based editor for Sanskrit and other Indic languages.

    It combines a Unicode text editor with built-in transliteration, making it easy to write in Devanagari directly in your browser. No installation, no account, and it works offline after the first load.

    Try it here:

    Feedback, suggestions, and contributions are always welcome.

  5. 3. Do computer documentation need to be translated into #Tamil or other #indic languages? #FreeBSD with a total userbase of around 4K-5K has its documentation completely translated into #Bengali. Might be because of Bangladesh but Tamil is important to people other than Tamil Nadu too.
