If you are moving from mobile to desktop, try the Tamil Phonetic layout first—it’s the easiest way to bridge the gap between "SMS-style" typing and proper Tamil script.
Keyman automatically handles the "pulli" (virama) and vowel markers. If you type a consonant followed by a vowel, it intelligently joins them into a single glyph.
Search for "Tamil" in the keyboard catalog and download your preferred layout (e.g., Tamil 99 or Phonetic).
