Translating the guix domain[1] (the command line UI messages) would be a
lot smaller and more manageable, while still being a challenging and
significant achievement. The guix manual is quite enormous. Also, the
benefits of translating the guix domain are more immediately relevant to
users and their daily activities.

Do you use emacs? If so, emacs has its own input methods (such as
devanagari-itrans and devanagari-inscript) for Devanagari. You can
switch input methods using M-x set-input-method and M-x
toggle-input-method.

For other non-emacs applications, you'll have to use ibus or
uim[2]. When last I checked a few years ago, I couldn't get ibus to work
correctly on Guix. Things might have improved now. For non-emacs
applications, I use uim instead of ibus.

I recommend the non-phonetic input methods such as
devanagari-inscript. Phonetic input methods slow you down in the long
run. But, phonetic methods do have an easier learing curve. Then, there
are predictive input methods such as varnam[3]. This is the closest free
software equivalent to Google Input Tools.
