Varta Keyboard is a free Chrome extension designed for efficient typing in multiple Indian languages, specifically Malayalam and Tamil. This phonemic keyboard allows users to type directly from their browser using a standard QWERTY layout, streamlining the process of multilingual communication online.

The extension automatically generates vowel signs and modifiers based on the letters typed, eliminating the need for separate keys. Users can easily see the on-screen key layout through the virtual keyboard feature. For instance, typing the consonants and vowels will produce the corresponding characters in Malayalam and Tamil, making it a user-friendly tool for those looking to type in these languages. Future updates are expected to expand language support further.
