Developed resources:

My layout for the Limbu language in its indigenous Sirijanga script is as follows (it modifies the existing resource to be better suited for the consistency of the language [with respect to frequent usage and vowels] and streamlines it):

There are no deadkeys or combinations of keys for the sake of simplicity.

However, all vowels and some consonant endings can be counted (technically) as deadkeys as they add their diacritic mark to the existing letter to form a single glyph.

Thus:

(Markers)

ᤁ + ᤲ = ᤁᤲ

ᤁ + ᤺ = ᤁ᤺

ᤁ + ᤻ = ᤁ᤻

(Consonant Endings)

ᤁ + ᤰ = ᤁᤰ

ᤁ + ᤱ = ᤁᤱ

ᤁ + ᤳ = ᤁᤳ

ᤁ + ᤏ = ᤁᤴ

ᤁ + ᤵ = ᤁᤵ

ᤁ + ᤸ = ᤁᤸ

ᤁ + ᤶ = ᤁᤶ

(Consonant Clusters)

ᤁ + ᤪ = ᤁᤪ

ᤁ + ᤩ = ᤁᤩ

ᤁ + ᤫ = ᤁᤫ

(Vowels)

ᤁ + ᤨ = ᤁᤨ

ᤁ + ᤠ = ᤁᤠ

ᤁ + ᤧ = ᤁᤧ

ᤁ + ᤣ = ᤁᤣ

ᤁ + ᤡ = ᤁᤡ

ᤁ + ᤢ = ᤁᤢ

ᤁ + ᤥ = ᤁᤥ

ᤁ + ᤤ = ᤁᤤ

ᤁ + ᤦ = ᤁᤦ
