Description:
dev.SYS began as an ambition to make a simple geometric type set of Latin and Devanagari scripts sharing the same construction attributes. This was acquired by defining a display typeface which expresses the complex Devanagri script in a minimal system and is concurrently followed by the glyph attributes of its Latin counterpart.

The study then attempted to map out the correlations between the anatomy of both the scripts.
Currently the study is being tested with other existing fonts that have variable grid systems for a broader understanding.

Aim:
To create a digital system that assists the conversion of existing Latin Display Typefaces into Devanagari format.
