The Inuktut-Nattilik repository houses the official language tools for the Natchilingmiutut* / αα¦α ααα₯α αα¦ (Nattilingmiutut) language community, a dialect of Inuktut in Nunavut representing the three East Qitirmiut/Kitikmeot communities of KuugaarΕuk / α°αααͺα (Kugaaruk), TalurΕuaq / ααααͺαα (Taloyoak) and Gjoa Haven / α α πͺΈα αα (UqΕ‘uqtuuq). The repository houses the official Natchilingmiutut keyboard layout, as well as fonts that can be used in conjunction with this keyboard layout for typing in Natchilingmiutut.
Note that the name 'Natchilingmiutut' is used to refer to the Natchilik language in this repository, rather than 'Nattilingmiutut' or 'Nattilik' in this text, which is the accurate spelling of the language in the local dialect. This is counter to the Unicode core spec and code chart name listings for the 'Nattilik' characters in the Unified Aboriginal Canadian Syllabics.

These releases serve as a record in the repository towards a summary of the development and updates to each product, both towards updates to the source file and the resulting products that are released or pre-released for the community.
