fydeRhythm is a meticulously crafted keyboard input method editor (IME), designed by the FydeOS team. fydeRhythm is designed for operating systems that are based on the Chromium OS ecosystem, such as ChromeOS, openFyde and FydeOS. It leverages the power and versatility of the RIME input method engine.
We're proud to present the source code for the second iteration of fydeRhythm. This version marks a departure from the first, bringing a fresh design paradigm and architectural approach. Every component of the input method, inclusive of the RIME engine, is encapsulated within the extension, thus eliminating the need for an independent server running within the system. We've successfully compiled the RIME engine into WebAssembly, courtesy of the emscripten toolchain, facilitating its execution directly within the extension environment. Additionally, optimisations have been applied to the storage content and startup process to ensure swift launches and an enhanced user experience.
