The user interface displays the roots with various associated information for three vṛttis.

The tables can be sorted in 3 different ways
- according to the order of roots as in the Dhātupāṭha,
- alphabetically in the order of the roots, and
- alphabetically according to the meanings.
The reference numbers to the sūtras in the three vṛttis are sensitive to mouse. When a user clicks a sūtra number, the corresponding part of the commentary appears in the pop-up window.
The root is also linked with the existing generator. All the roots for which a verb conjugator is available, are mouse clickable. When this link is clicked, user gets the generated forms of the verb.
The meaning is also sensitive to the mouse. When a cursor is brought over the meaning, if any of the vṛttis provide the analysis of the meaning, that is displayed in a tooltip.
