- cosmiciron 7mo agoYou are absolutely right about the Devanagari. That is a known trade-off at the moment. Because the core engine is strictly constrained to 88 KiB of pure JavaScript, it intentionally bypasses massive C++ shaping libraries like HarfBuzz. I haven't yet found a way to process complex text layout (CTL) and fuse those ligatures purely in JS without completely blowing up the bundle size. It's a very early implementation, but finding a micro-footprint solution for that is on the ROADMAP! Though, to be fair, for my original need—generating industry-standard screenplays from Markdown—the engine is already total overkill. LOL. As for the film: my feature premiered in January 2024 in China under the title 《天降大任》. It was originally developed in Los Angeles as an English-language project called Chosen. I actually put down my programmer's hat and worked on that film for over ten years!
