Wakalito
Wakalito is a keyboard layout and input method for entering Toki Pona words. It is based on the glyph components in sitelen pona rather than the Latin script. It was developed by jan Likipi, together with kala pona Tonyu and jan Tepo in 2020.[1][2]
Wakalito supports all nimi pu and nimi ku suli, as well as select nimi ku lili. It is currently available for iOS through the App Store and for desktop—on Windows 10/11, OS X, and Linux—through the open-source program Espanso.
The name Wakalito is derived from a shuffled combination of the first syllable in the creators' names: waso Likipi and kala pona Tonyu.
Overview
Keys
There are 17 components and keys, mapped to the top-right rows of the keyboard. These are possible to be typed using only the left hand.
