Ambuda updates [June 2023]

[Learn Sanskrit]

नमो वः,

I'm sending this update out late due to being sick with COVID-19. Please look forward to a more substantial update in July.

Our proofing work is continuing well, and we have a total of around 50 texts transcribed that are not available elsewhere on the Internet. In addition, we have the usual announcements:

Donations welcome! A financial gift is the easiest way to support our work and help Ambuda grow. For donations outside of India, please see our form here. For donations within India, please contact us here and we'll reply as soon as we can.

Full-stack engineers wanted! Our proofing tool is becoming more popular, and we are searching for engineers to volunteer and help us take it to the next level. Our technical stack is Python with AlpineJS on the frontend. We will help anyone with interest and initiative to onboard on our stack and find places to contribute. You can find our main repository here, and to join our community and talk to us more casually, you can join our Discord server here.

Vidyut progress: Vidyut, our Sanskrit software toolkit, continues to make good progress and now has multiple contributors to its core pieces. If you are interested in contributing to our word generator, please see our request for help here.

Wishing you all good health and safety,

Arun
