Subin showed the improvements in govarnam’s db query speeds through sqlite optimization.

There’s a mystery that in Apple M1 inside a ubuntu virtual machine it runs faster than even the M1 natively.

This speed improvement makes it practical to run in Indic keyboard with sub-10 ms suggestions.

A reverse transliteration feature has been added too.

The dictionary in Indic Keyboard right now is from 2014. Planning new dictionary

Suggestion strip improvements planned: “Typed word fixed width button on left in suggestion strip”

Preference screen for varnam

Branding for varnam integrated “intelligent” indic keyboard. @hfactor, any inputs?

Idea to use varnam for emoji search (instead of dictionary)

Triaging old issues

Marketing through github collections, stars
