Language tools and writing systems

I build software for Nahuatl, the Xamix syllabic script, and libre dictionaries.

About me

Rashīd Tlenexkoyotl

I’m Rashīd Tlenexkoyotl, a developer focused on language technology and libre linguistics. My work centers on Nahuatl, the Xamix writing system (a modern syllabic script for Nahuatl with thousands of glyphs), and open, multi-language dictionary infrastructure.

I build web components, editors, static sites, and APIs—often with TypeScript, Lit, Go, and Vite—to support learning, curation, and preservation of language data.

I love the outdoors: camping, fishing, and barbecuing. I'm also passionate about learning and teaching languages and linguistics.
