🧠 How the Hindi InScript / Mangal Unicode Works
1. Phonetic Symmetry
Vowels and matras are placed on the left hand, while consonants are organized logically on the right hand.
2. Shift Key Pairs
Unaspirated consonants (e.g. क, त, प) are typed unshifted. Pressing Shift on the same key produces the aspirated form (ख, थ, फ).
3. Halant / Virama
Pressing the D key inserts a Virama / Halant, removing the inherent vowel to create conjuncts and half-characters.
