Best practices for Malayalam font rendering on the web

After months of testing, here are my findings on rendering Malayalam text correctly across browsers: 1) Use Manjari or Rachana for body text, 2) Set proper line-height (1.8-2.0), 3) Use font-feature-settings for proper conjunct rendering. Full write-up coming to the Malayalam Typography repo.

Kerala Tourism Explorer now has AI itinerary planning

Just pushed a major update to the Kerala Tourism Explorer — it now uses RAG over curated travel data to generate personalized itineraries. Ask it things like 'plan a 5-day trip covering backwaters and hill stations' and it creates a detailed day-by-day plan with estimated costs.

Looking for React Native devs for Kerala-themed app

I'm building a React Native app that showcases Kerala's festivals with AR features — imagine pointing your phone at a poster and seeing a Theyyam performance come alive. Need help with the ARKit/ARCore integration. DM if interested!

How I built an OCR system for old Malayalam manuscripts

Kerala's libraries have thousands of palm leaf manuscripts that are deteriorating. I fine-tuned a vision transformer on 5000 labeled images of old Malayalam script. The model now achieves 87% character accuracy on manuscripts from the 16th century. The model weights are open-source.

Kathakali-inspired CSS color system — feedback wanted

Created a CSS color system based on Kathakali face paint colors — Pachcha (green/noble), Kathi (green+red/anti-hero), Thaadi (red/demonic), Minukku (satin/feminine), Kari (black/forest). Each maps to semantic design tokens. Would love feedback before publishing as an npm package.
