Feedback, bug reports, questions
Dấu Việt is free software and still being polished. Any report about a typing bug, an application it does not get along with, or a missing feature is genuinely useful.

How to report a typing bug effectively
The more specific it is, the easier it is to reproduce and fix.
-
The keystrokes you typed and what you expected
For example: “typed
hoawcj, expectedhoặc, gothơac”. -
The application you were typing in
Name and version, for example “Word 365”, “Chrome 131”, “Windows Terminal”.
-
Your current settings
Open the Advanced tab; the status block contains a line like
method=telex smart=smart standaloneW=off— copy that line into the e-mail. -
Whether another input method is running
UniKey, EVKey or GoTiengViet running at the same time is the most common cause of scrambled text. Please check before reporting.
When you write in, please do not include passwords or private content. All we need is the key sequence that reproduces the problem, not your real text — and the software itself records nothing to send anywhere.
About the project
Dấu Việt is written in C++20 against the plain Win32 API, with no third-party libraries at all, and compiled with MSVC into a single statically linked 64-bit executable. The goal is simple: a Vietnamese input method that is light, spells correctly, stays out of your way, and never touches your data.
The current version is 0.9.0 — good enough for daily use, but with parts still unfinished, which we list openly on the features page rather than hiding.
