Want to build a predictive text dictionary with custom logic? This advanced guide explores creating custom lexical models in TypeScript for languages with complex morphology or polysynthetic structures, helping developers move beyond traditional wordlist-based predictions. Learn how to implement a custom model and take advantage of the latest improvements in Keyman Developer 18.0.249. How could a custom lexical model benefit the language or project you're working on?
