  • Covering features found in a large variety of Chinese input methods, either shape-based or phonetic-based
  • Built with native support for Traditional Chinese, conversion to Simplified Chinese and other regional standards via OpenCC
  • Rime input schema, a DSL in YAML syntax for fast trying out innovative ideas of input method design
  • Spelling Algebra, a mechanism to create variant spelling, especially useful for Chinese dialects
  • Support for chord-typing with a generic Qwerty keyboard
