I purposefully avoided electron, cause that would make it heavy. So I made an editor web app that integrates with the varnamc CLI tool installed in the system : I've filed a bug report if that gets solved, I'll package the engine too. I tried packaging it with Flatpak, but the ibus engine didn't work out because flatpak has some issues with ibus, dbus. So to make things very very easy, I made a Flatpak package ! 🎉 Varnam is such a great tool that most people don't know of it, possibly because it's hard to set up.

Google Input Tools which does transliteration isn't available for GNU/Linux.

For the average user, setting up Varnam is hard.

Varnam has to be set up to learn words which is time consuming.

In KDE+i3, switching ibus layouts didn't work sometimes.

Setting it with ibus didn't work in some apps such as Telegram (Qt app).

Varnam Editor Why I Built Varnam EditorĪltough varnam is a great tool, setting it up was difficult : So capitalizing letters will give better results. One amazing feature of Varnam is that it has predictions + character map : This is also another problem that is solved by my flatpak package. Installing varnam for the first time won't give good predictions.

varnam-ibus - The ibus integration for varnamĬompiling and installing libvarnam will give a nifty command line tool : varnamc -s ml -t aa ennaa undu.

Varnam is a great tool ! I found it very useful and typing with it so easy ! There's an ibus integration which makes it easy to type natively in apps (ibus is a keyboard input system for GNU/Linux.) : It's written in C and works on GNU/Linux and Windows. The project was started by a malayalee Navaneeth K.N in 2010. Varnam is a C library to easily type Indian languages using transliteration. Check out libindic project which do just that. Even malayalam to hindi or tamil to bangla. We write the text in english letters and it will be converted to the language we need. Transliteration is a type of conversion of a text from one script to another that involves swapping letters (thus trans- + liter-) in predictable ways (such as α → a, д → d, χ → ch, ն → n or æ → ae).īasically transliteration is Manglish to Malayalam conversion.

Varnam Editor uses an existing library called Varnam and makes it easy to install & use. Technically, it's an editor for transliterating Indian languages. It is easily installable for GNU/Linux distros like Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Debian, Archlinux etc.
