Quite impressed to see the initiatives in localization, especially in
programming languages.
Wow!

Just a small suggestion: Please use the word 'Indic' rather than 'vernacular'.

The word 'vernacular' is a generic, insulting term, historically  used
by former colonial masters. It literally means 'languague of the slave
or servant' and is derogatory. Vernacular could be applied for any
non-English language.

The word you seek is 'Indic' as in, belonging to the region which
shares the rich heritage of languages that evolved across the Indian
subcontinent and Asia, beyond the existing political boundaries of a
dozen or more countries.
