About:
Jyutping is a native Cantonese input method for macOS that allows users to type using the standard Jyutping romanization system. It provides intelligent character and phrase prediction, helping users quickly input traditional and simplified Chinese characters associated with Cantonese pronunciation. The tool offers a seamless system-level integration for a fluid typing experience.
Key Features:
  • Standard Jyutping romanization support
  • Intelligent character and phrase prediction
  • System-wide macOS integration
  • Support for traditional and simplified characters
Use Cases:

Alternatives:
  • Rime – Rime is a highly configurable input method engine that supports Jyutping via schemas like Squirrel, offering more customization but requiring more setup than Jyutping.
