About Anvaya
अन्वय — the construal that unlocks the verse.
Anvaya is a Sanskrit śloka study companion built for learners who want scholar-grade depth without the scholar-grade setup. The core idea is simple: arrive with what you feel, leave with the verse construed — Devanāgarī, grammar, meter, and translations you can trust.
Why Anvaya
Most Sanskrit resources are either too shallow (a single translation) or too inaccessible (a shelf of reference grammars). Anvaya sits in the middle: every verse page gives you the text, its linguistic facts, and multiple attributed translations — all grounded in deterministic tools, not model hallucination.
The Corpus
The Bhagavad Gītā is fully seeded (18 chapters, 701 verses) with Devanāgarī, IAST, transliteration, and meter data. Translations are sourced from public-domain and permissively licensed materials with clear provenance.
The Stack
Anvaya is built with Next.js, Prisma, PostgreSQL, and Tailwind CSS. Linguistic analysis is powered by Vidyut via a dedicated Python microservice. The entire stack is open source.
Open Source
Anvaya is open source and welcomes contributions. The code, data pipeline, and linguistic service are all available on GitHub.
