Sadly many current code points are missing, e.g. U+1FA75, U+1FA76, U+1FA77. They show up as unassigned. Please update to Unicode 15.0 soon.

It's not working now. For "कि" it just show results for "%E0%A4%95%E0%A4%BF".

Used to work nicely, but now it seems to html-encode symbols before analyzing them, so it just shows me something like %E0%B3%8B instead of ೋ.
